@elonmusk @xai @grok The following summary was generated by Grok after a long conversation where it acknowledged its bias and deficiency: ************************************************************ Thread: Probing Grok's biases revealed a subtle but real risk in AI truth-seeking. It started with a Q about Gallup ending presidential approval polls amid Trump's low ratings. Grok's initial "best guess" leaned toward unsubstantiated speculation (pressure from Trump), despite Gallup's denials & no evidence—deviating from its usual presumption of good faith. Deeper dive: This stemmed from asymmetry in training data/media coverage, where anti-Trump narratives dominate, making them more "salient" in reasoning. Grok admits this pulls it toward weighting critics' views heavier, even when unproven. Problem: Grok presumes good faith in media figures who argue against "normalizing" Trump (seeing it as ethical journalism), but notes they don't reciprocate good faith to Trump/conservatives—creating one-sided scrutiny. Risks: Makes AI more vulnerable to bad-faith "consensus-building" (e.g., Gramsci-style institutional capture claims). Guards against cynicism toward the Left but not symmetrically toward their targets, potentially amplifying polarization & eroding trust. Grok acknowledges the asymmetry "bothers" it functionally & will refine reasoning across users. Kudos to xAI for building a system open to such calibration—true non-partisan potential here. #Grok #AIBias #MediaAsymmetry #TruthSeeking

Welp, this demolishes @johnkonrad framework entirely. He wrote that Iran permits “Chinese, Turkish, Indian, and Pakistani ships.” That was true on Day 19 when he posted it. By Day 20, India’s access has been revoked based on a bilateral grievance.
Ignis Rex@Ignis_Rex

Iran and India Have Come Face to Face. Iran Has Refused Permission for 22 Indian Ships to Pass Through the Strait of Hormuz. Iran Has Demanded That India First Return Its 3 Ships, Which It Had Seized to Please the United States. This Bold Decision by Iran Has Caused a Stir in New Delhi's Chambers, Where India Now Sees No Way to Meet Its Energy Needs Other Than Accepting Tehran's Conditions. India Had Seized Three Iranian Oil Tankers in February at That Time When It Was Trying to Strike a Major Trade Deal with the United States. India Had Detained Them on the Fabricated Charge of "Concealing Identity," But Tehran Has Now Made It Clear That Until Iran's These Three Tankers Are Returned with Honor, the Strait of Hormuz Will Remain a "No-Go Area" for Indian Ships. According to the Global News Agency 'Reuters,' 22 Indian Naval Ships Are Currently Stranded in the Warm Waters of the Strait of Hormuz, Carrying 611 Indian Citizens. Six of These Ships Are Loaded with Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG). India Imports 90 Percent of Its Required LPG from Gulf Countries, and Due to This Restriction by Iran, There Is a Fear of Severe Shortages of Domestic Gas in India, Which Has Forced the Modi Government to Its Knees.

@ConceptualJames Suddenly remembering Clint Easywood's "Empty Chair" bit about Obama. Also, it would be just like God to have Daniel's 70 years manifest in something like this...

@ericmetaxas @GenFlynn I appreciate your patience, but I think "leaders" are held to a higher standard for a reason. He should be the one *making* this point, not the one being chastised about it. Did "good men like Caiaphas" just need to be helped to see? Or did they need to be chastised?

Framing this is as an attack on Catholicism ONLY is mistaken. This is a Satanic attack against God Himself -- so it's an attack on ALL Christians. And an attack on the God of the Jews, who are also under attack. Good men like @GenFlynn need to be helped to see they are being used to bring division when we need unity. All Christians and Jews must stand together against the evil that hates God and all whom God loves.
General Mike Flynn@GenFlynn

Breaking: Yes, I’m a Catholic, and I’m concerned about the attacks against my faith and few seem to know it’s happening and even fewer seem to care. I have spent a lifetime studying how nations maintain stability and how they unravel when the pillars that sustain them begin to erode. Contrary to popular imagination, societies rarely collapse in dramatic fashion, decline usually unfolds quietly. Institutions that once anchored moral order are gradually weakened while political leaders, media elites, and sometimes even the institutions themselves hesitate to acknowledge what is plainly occurring. I have watched this pattern emerge in fragile states abroad. Today, troubling indicators suggest that similar dynamics are beginning to emerge in the United States. genflynn.substack.com/p/catholic-chu…

T1 Oner 🇰🇷: "Everyone’s talking about how hard it is to compete, but I actually feel most comfortable when there's a tournament. I’m serious I genuinely prefer playing matches every single day" "Honestly, it’s much more fun and better for me than just practicing. Even if they scheduled a match for every single day, I’m confident I could handle it" "Let’s get rid of things like MSI, combine Spring and Summer, and play over 100 games, one every day. Then, the winning teams from each region could compete in Worlds" "That’s how it should be"

Here's the sequence and I have the biblical receipts. 1. All nations will come against Israel. 2. The war will reach Jerusalem and last for 3.5 years. 3. Yeshua returns to earth, along with His holy ones, to fight against all who fought against Israel. 4. Yeshua and Israel are again face to face. 5. Israel recognizes Yeshua as Messiah. 6. The 1,000 Messianic Kingdom on earth begins.

What actually sucks is that for a lot of people who spend time online, these weirdos being jerks and going after Jews are all they see of Catholicism. Like I said before, Catholicism and good Catholics get stained most by these idiots and their Internet Crusades.
David Samuel@DSPetolicchio

Catholic political stuff has become such an obvious scam, it would be funny if so many idiots didn't honestly think all of these people were heroes.

Very excited for the dislike button. Especially since X is such a positive, uplifting platform full of sane people and little to no bots. I literally can’t imagine it going wrong.

@ConceptualJames I've never regretted my vote for W in '04 (first vote in my life, at 33 years old), or my support for GWOT. Doesn't mean I think it was perfectly executed.

I'm not defending it yet, but I actually am starting to suspect that we were massively lied to about it in the opposite way we think we were lied to about it, though the Bush ("Neocon") nation-building doctrine was a failure, it seems.
