Statistics
I have had cause to read 4 or 5 AI generated articles in the last few days and google now seems to want to use AI every time you make a search..
I have generally found AI articles to not understand context, have a lack of historical knowledge, take the conventional “official” line and lack common sense.
Then it occurred to me that exactly the same features can also be attributed to Politicians. Coincidence?

(3) Overcoming scepticism about Heat Pumps using nudge technology and cognitive distortions of reality to encourage their adoption: https://www.bi.team/

The Shocking Damage Caused by Covid Policies
“The Covid lockdowns may not have been remotely effective, but at least they harmed millions of people and created long-lasting negative impacts that we’re still dealing with today.
That’s the conclusion of a massive new body of research into the nonsensical policies promoted by the public health “expert” class, promoted by their media partners, and enacted by incompetent, cowardly politicians.”

Climate Alarm On The Run, Part II
“This is what happens when “journalists” keep reporting about a dead horse. Eventually the public realizes the horse has perished and there’s nothing left to talk about. Or that there was no horse to begin with.”
