That's why quantity is important online. They can't suppress it all.

It just surprises me that people put more effort trying to get AI to quote Hitler than they do trying to fight for something like this.

Why is there this asymmetry of effort between the political factions.

This is also why governments are pushing so hard for "AI." AI won't be used to improve the quality of our lives. It will be used for advertising, propaganda, surveillance and control. Only AI is fast enough to run all the bots and generate the blizzard of BS fast enough to counter the opinions of millions of people online.

What about in the opposite direction. Isn't AI a tool that can be used to create, analyze and research. Which is why I think it's pushed very hard for the left to alienate themselves from it. It gives anyone who embraced it a big advantage.
