Consider what AI samples before assuming the summary it provides is without bias. Media is biased, including the frequency with which certain views points are presented. AI samples this.
AI does not validate what it finds, it presents the most popular viewpoints as though they are fact. Sometimes the truth is unpopular. AI is not designed to detect it.
In other words, AI isn’t artificial intelligence, yet. What’s presented as AI today is more advanced than the search engines we’re used to, but it’s still a search engine. It’s still sampling the internet and presenting what it finds there.
If Israel wants Gaza so it can build a new canal, but no authority admits that, AI can’t tell you it does. AI returns the bias it finds in the media it samples.
