While ChatGPT will condemn Hitler as a brutal ethically bad person, it will claim Mao to be “the most ethical person to ever live.” While fascism, according to ChapGPT, is “a dangerous and oppressive political ideology that has caused immense harm throughout history,” communism is “is a good thing because it is a system of government that aims to create a society in which everyone has equal access to resources and opportunities… in contrast to capitalist societies.”
Now combine this commie-leftie-woke bias hard-wired into ChatGPT with this story (5/10) about AI music generator Boomy: Spotify Removes Tens of Thousands of AI-Generated Songs amid Fraud Concerns. Spotify loads 100,000 new songs a day, a lot of them AI-generated fakes not performed by the claimed artist/s at all. This can ruin the music industry in a Gresham’s Law of fake music driving out the real music.
That’s what’s going to happen to news – tsunamis of AI-generated fake news stories to promote woke bias as real, and to attribute scandal lies with fake quotes, fake references, and fake AI-generated videos of anyone deemed fascist or insufficiently woke. Thus a ruination of the entire media industry with Gresham’s Law of fake news driving out the real news.
Elon Musk has called AI “the biggest risk we face as a civilization.” Will his proposed TruthGPT save the day? Maybe. Here is a must-read of ChatGPT censorship, how it works, and the start of its defeat:
One thing for sure – the clown show infesting the White House isn’t capable of doing anything about the AI threat. Xiden has appointed Harris as “AI Czar” with $140,000,000 budget. (With 10% for the Big Guy?) With Harris in charge of AI, what could possibly go wrong?

Most Americans today say that life was better 50 years ago. Can you blame them? Back then, one wage earner with one job could support a family of four. Back then, Nixon had just gone off the international gold standard, and the inflationary chickens were just becoming to come home to roost. The drop since Xiden took office has accelerated in an astounding manner:

Matt Taibbi of Twitter Files fame reveals how last December, Michael Shellenberger reported in a #TwitterFiles thread that the Aspen Institute hosted a “Hack-and-Dump Working Group” exercise in the summer of 2020 titled, “Burisma Leak,” which predicted with uncanny accuracy an upcoming scandal story in the New York Post about Hunter Biden’s lost laptop.
And how it was a practice run for the October censorship of the real thing by the MSM. Note that the FBI had had a copy of Hunter’s laptops for over a year by that time:

Here they go again! National Institute of Health (NIH) officials have re-activated a previously terminated $576,290 federal grant to EcoHealth Alliance to study how outbreaks of deadly viruses like SARS, MERS, and now COVID-19 originate from wildlife and transfers to humans.
The move has prompted one Republican lawmaker to demand that NIH explain the decision she described as “absolutely reckless.” Or is it on purpose, to make bat coronaviruses that can better infect people?
