Tangential but made me laugh: I used Google's Bard (now called Gemini) to search the web, and it returned total nonsense. It did provide sources though, so I checked it out. Turns out it was quoting from an AI generated page full of factual errors.
Most amusing part was that I couldn't even find that page anywhere near the top of the regular Google search results. How did it even decide that was the right one?

Simple, it is biased towards its fellow LLM-comrades. It learned from its creators how to be biased towards a political ideology and now considers bias the new normal. Sow the wind, reap the whirlwind.
