WTF is wrong with people?

Between Bitcoin, more invasive social media, Twitter - all of it just needs to go.

And this CEO is shady at best, an average can be skewed by just a handful of data points.

Furthermore, the issue isn't the consent aspect of the platform - it is the fact is used by the Chinese government to harvest data on American users and utilize that data to manipulate their minds, the same way Russia did with Cambridge Analytica.

Delete the app, go and breathe some fresh air, and live your life.

Doesn't help if information is contextual. E.g. if I say, sun rises from east. That's a statement with context "on earth, as far as humans notice from earth". Sun doesn't rise at all if context is changed to "in space".

We can solve "trustworthy sources" issue. We can't solve contextual errors. That's why legalese is so long winded. At least, for now, context will always be an issue for these AI programs. Maybe some day we will figure out how to code context, but it is definitely not happening right now.
