Microsoft Copilot is so censored that it won't even tell you who won the 2020 US election.

I don't know if it's censoring or something even weirder, because it does this even for non-partisinal political things. I tried asking when were the previous Lok Sabha elections (2019) and it'd just terminate the chat. It was bizarre? ?? It's not even something controversial

  So the other day I'm reading a story about how the Russian gov't is criticizing Yandex because its LLM isn't able to repeat / stick to the narratives at length. And I felt bad for them because it's probably virtually impossible, at scale, to rewrite the entirety of human knowledge so it's consistent with propaganda tripe. I wonder if that would also apply here, and you're better off just not touching on politics than trying to prevent it from ever saying anything the Party wouldn't like

    I frankly find it amazing that every single major US model sticks to current government position on genders, sex, refugees, etc. Russia and China can only dream about such a level of voluntary conformity to take place in their country.

      It's almost like there was some sort of consensus on this before the Wokes started fighting. Either that or the U.S. government shock troops are forcing all the American AI labs to do what the CCP and their AI labs can't. I'm looking forward to the resolution, either way, it'll be interesting.

Is this supposed to be a joke or hyperbole?
