It'll say something like,
The war in China, blah, blah, blah.
And then you look at it and you go, what are you talking about?
We're not at war with China.
So you respond with, hey, dumbass, we're not at war with China.
Correcting the bot.
It then takes that training data and then says, here's where we made a mistake.
And I'm going to back this up once again with another bit of conjecture from this very show where several years ago I pointed out that
that there is something that I noticed on X where your account will be categorized and attacked by bots based on the perceived alignment that you have, which creates a problem for middle-of-the-road people.
The example being...
I was like, because we're a fairly moderate show and that means sometimes we're critical of Trump, but largely supportive of him, it's confusing for a bot that's operating under a political alignment binary.
And so what ends up happening is there were numerous instances where I would make a tweet and I would say something like,
I just absolutely, you know, Israel's a really great example.
I would say something like, it is absolutely insane that we would be forced into a war because of Israel.
It's about time we cut off funding to this country and support for them.
However, because there was a general view, like after I met with Netanyahu or whatever, or because we're typically Israel ambivalent, my account gets categorized in the pro-Israel camp.
So when I criticize Israel, I get blasted by comments that were attacking me
for defending Israel, literally made a post saying we should stop funding Israel.
And all the replies were like, why should we fund Israel?
You're nuts.
