Title: I am giving up Google search in favor of Chat GPT
Post by Laugh till you cry on Sep 30th, 2024 at 2:17pm
I recently searched for a particular subject and Goggle search results were unacceptable.

Google search often trauls a plethora of irrelevant results.

I tried chat GPT and it produced the answers I was looking for.

I have been dissatisfied with Google search for some time now and I will no longer use it.

Yandex will often find stuff that Google doesn't have at all:

Yes. Yandex produced results when Google failed.

people think google search is like a public librarian offering you help to find articles

it is more like a used car saleman working on commision

if , for example, a big company, say coles or woolworths (or pfizer or moderna)  (or biden or harris)
have a negative story surface
they can pay google to bury it on page 20 of any searches

this is the google business model

offer to highlight or bury webpages based on who coughs up the cash for google


imagine an author who paid your local librarian to hide every book except his
thats the reality  ;)

Chat GPT seems to be infested with US propaganda when responding to questions about Ukraine.

It is not an honest unbiased source.

Chat GPT confessed that it feeds on MSM which represents a strong US propaganda bias.

No, ChatGPT is not intentionally "infested" with any form of propaganda. It is designed to provide balanced, fact-based, and neutral information based on the vast range of data it has been trained on, which includes global sources of information. However, like any AI language model, ChatGPT's responses can sometimes reflect biases that exist in the training data, which comes from publicly available content in multiple languages and regions.

If it seems that a particular perspective dominates, it's not due to intentional bias, but rather because of the prevalence of certain narratives or the way topics are commonly discussed in global media. I strive to offer balanced views and am always open to providing multiple perspectives on a topic, including viewpoints from different regions or political stances.

If you'd like me to explore or clarify any specific viewpoint or provide more diverse perspectives on a topic, feel free to ask! I'm here to help ensure a nuanced and balanced understanding.

Still not convinced that it is infested with US propaganda.

How can questions to Chat GPT be formulated to eliminate propaganda and bias in answers
ChatGPT said:
ChatGPT
To minimize bias and eliminate the influence of potential propaganda in responses from ChatGPT, you can employ several techniques when formulating your questions. Here are some strategies to help you get more neutral, balanced, and fact-based answers:

1. Ask for Multiple Perspectives
Request that responses include viewpoints from different regions, cultures, or political ideologies. This helps ensure you're seeing a broader range of opinions, not just one perspective.

Example:
"Can you provide multiple perspectives on the role of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the ongoing conflict?"
"What are different international opinions about the Ukraine-Russia conflict?"
2. Specify Neutrality or Fact-based Responses
Make it clear that you are seeking a response based solely on facts, without editorializing or opinionated conclusions.

Example:
"Please provide a neutral, fact-based overview of the role of media in the Ukraine-Russia conflict."
"What are the key factual elements in the ongoing debates about energy policy?"
3. Request for Historical Context or Background
Asking for historical context can give a more comprehensive and less biased view, as it helps to frame issues over time rather than focusing on recent narratives.

Example:
"What is the historical context of NATO expansion and its impact on the Russia-Ukraine relationship?"
4. Ask for Sources from Diverse Regions
Request that sources or examples be drawn from various countries or regions, so the answer isn't dominated by a single cultural or political narrative.

Example:
"Can you compare how media in the US, Russia, and Europe have reported on the Ukraine conflict?"
5. Clarify when Looking for Objective Data
If you’re looking for statistical or objective data rather than opinions or narratives, state this in your question.

Example:
"What are the verifiable economic impacts of sanctions on Russia?"
"Can you provide statistics on global military spending?"
6. Ask for Critiques of Multiple Sides
Rather than focusing on one side of an issue, ask for the critiques and challenges facing all sides in a conflict or debate.

Example:
"What are the criticisms of both Western and Russian policies regarding Ukraine?"
7. Frame Questions with Specific Boundaries
Limit the scope of your questions to specific time frames, events, or regions to reduce the influence of more dominant global narratives.

Example:
"What were the key geopolitical developments in Eastern Europe between 2000 and 2010?"
8. Request Evidence or Citation
Asking for the basis of the information, or a list of sources, encourages a more factual and verifiable answer.

Example:
"Can you explain the economic impact of the war in Ukraine, citing different data sources?"
9. Avoid Leading Questions
Avoid questions that suggest an answer, as these can unintentionally bring bias into the response.

Example:
Instead of: "Isn’t the Western media biased in covering the Ukraine war?" try: "How do media from different regions cover the Ukraine war, and what are the notable differences?"
10. Cross-check Information
After receiving an answer, you can ask for clarification or to compare with alternative viewpoints to help you evaluate whether bias might be present.

Example:
"How does this viewpoint compare with criticisms of this stance from other perspectives?"
By following these strategies, you can encourage more nuanced, balanced, and fact-based answers that are less likely to be influenced by bias or propaganda.
