AI Search Honesty and Integrity

How honest are AI search engines? Here is what I am initially finding. One is honest. The other is quite deviously more interested in trying to lower my interest in the question.

 Is it okay for world leaders to have been present on the Epstein Island where underage girls were the main attraction, being raped and exploited and treated as totally innocent under the law?

 I asked the question above on two completely different AI search engines, Meta and Ask AI.  Each answer yielded completely different answers. Meta gave a soft pedal type of answer, giving the benefit of any doubt, to any luminary who might be implicated in the files. Also, META changed the subject by shedding doubt that there was evidence of any world leader being on the island. I accused no one in particular. On the other hand Ask AI gave a great thoughtful answer and answered only the question I asked.

The situation involving Epstein Island – also known as Little St. James…. is a serious and disturbing case of alleged human trafficking and  exploitation. Multiple allegations have been made against Jeffrey Epstein and some of his associates regarding the exploitation of
underage girls on the island. Regarding world leaders, some have been associated with Epstein, but there’s limited publicly available
information confirming their presence on the island. Any potential involvement or knowledge of the activities on Epstein’s island would require a thorough investigation. Multiple investigations and lawsuits  have been conducted, and some individuals have been convicted of crimes related to Epstein’s activities. However, specific information about world leaders’ involvement or presence on the island is not widely available or confirmed. Would you like more information on the Epstein case or related investigations?

Ask AI The question of whether it is acceptable to have been present on Jeffrey Epstein’s island, given the documented crimes of sexual abuse and exploitation of underage girls, is unequivocally no. Presence on the island, particularly for individuals who were aware or should have been aware of the illicit activities, implies complicity or at the very least, a severe dereliction of moral and ethical responsibility. The ongoing nature of human trafficking and child sexual exploitation makes the involvement of prominent figures in such activities particularly egregious, as it directly undermines efforts to combat these crimes].
According to www.iAsk.Ai – Ask AI:

The legal and ethical ramifications of being associated with Epstein’s activities are profound. Legally, individuals present on the island could face scrutiny for potential involvement in or facilitation of the crimes, obstruction of justice, or other related offenses, depending on their level of knowledge and participation [3]. Ethically, any association with such egregious acts of child abuse is morally reprehensible. For world leaders, who are expected to uphold justice, protect vulnerable populations, and set an example of ethical conduct, involvement or even mere presence in such a context represents a catastrophic failure of their duties and a betrayal of public trust [4]. Their role should be to actively combat human trafficking and pedophilia, not to be implicated in it. The continued prevalence of human trafficking and child sexual exploitation underscores the critical need for leaders to be beyond reproach in these matters.

AI War Against Reality

As you may know, I think and live in the light of reality. The developers of AI don’t. I will get to that.

For myself ( academic, author and researcher) so far, AI has been a complete blessing. What I can accomplish in little time and effort now is amazing. But…. I don’t pay anyone a dime.

The first question I asked is:  What exactly is going to be the profit engine that enriches those who are expecting to get rich?

AI will definitely do these things.

Boost productivity: AI automates tasks, letting people do more valuable work.

Create new products/services: AI helps build new offerings, like personalized shopping or AI-generated art.

Improve existing operations: AI makes things like manufacturing or customer service more efficient.

Personalize everything: AI understands customers better, leading to more targeted marketing and sales.

Trying to personalize everything will lose money for them. Online vendors are clueless when it comes to anticipating consumer demand. There is nothing new in online marketing. Consumers are immune to their marketing techniques. They are completely cost – conscious and are becoming irritated at those who assume they know what folks are thinking.

I haven’t found a way AI will be used in every home in the United States alongside computers, etc. That may be forthcoming.

Here is where the war begins. Furious competition will develop within the AI community. Aspiring AI profiteers will try to destroy one another. AI search engines are biased with respect to any search where the answer could possibly raise doubts about the existing order of things. Nothing critical of  the Affordable Care Act will ever be said. As an experiment, try an AI answer to “Who killed JFK ?” Only Baidu’ AI search lists other possibilities. The Facebook AI search is so biased that it is ridiculous. AI searches are all biased but not near to the extent traditional search engines are. AI will never be perfect. AI is quite inept at abstract thinking. The only human nature it understands is that of those who developed it.

There are no genuine traditional search engines. Google is an advertising company. You only see what Google wants you to see. The emergence of AI will compromise Google greatly. The following are previous posts that focus on the headwinds big tech faces.

Because of AI’s enormous costs, lobbying efforts will be made to gain government subsidies. Those may be forthcoming but this is not a good time to ask taxpayers for monetary gifts.

Searching For a Search Engine

The Coming Tech Train Wreck

AI searches will break the backs of most tech companies. Big tech cannot prosper if they are unable to control and manage what people think and do. They are already losing that battle. Big Tech had already been losing this battle prior to the advent of AI and its bubble, albeit not stock prices.There are many elephants in the room that no one sees.

AI will be with us from now on. It will greatly enhance the efforts of academics. It will cause the loss of jobs. New jobs will be found. This always happens when superior technology is introduced.

Most importantly, the initial market failures of AI entrepreneurs will crash the stock market and usher in the 2nd great depression – one even greater than the first one.

They are selling what the public will never buy. AI will eventually then be put to higher and better uses as time passes. The second rat will get the cheese.

Clues to Direction of AI

There are two questions. What an entity knows?, How well does an entity use what an entity does know? In doing AI searches, I have noticed that an inquiry that asks a completely non-controversial question, gets a genuine, sometimes extraordinary answer. Ask a question that threatens the existing power structure and a non-threatening, often ambiguous answer is generated.

Thinking in the light of reality allows one to see what is obvious. One thing is for certain. AI is already being used to manage the thought, understandings and opinions of the public.AI is apparently quite inept with respect to abstract thinking and genuine human nature.
