The Heartland Institute’s Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, and Justin Haskins present episode 389 of the In The Tank Podcast. There is a lot to talk about. The Silicon Valley Bank went bust. Was this failure brought on by bad business practices or it this a sign of things to come? Also, what are the politics at play in regards to the plan to “bailout” the failing bank? Also, Joe Biden just approved a large oil project in Alaska. Has Biden reversed his position on fossil fuel production? But more important than any of these stories…. CHAT GPT LIED TO ME!!!!!!

    Somebody has to write the algorithm to create fictitious links.   Has the algorithm identified you personally as someone it wants to feed fictitious information?   Will it feed a liberal commentator different information?

    I think it’s designed to produce original texts by imitating/averaging existing texts.  

    The problem is, it’s treating links as text, so you get plausible-looking article and periodical titles, based on real ones; followed by plausible-looking URL’s, also based on real ones.
