Dear friend,
It’s well known that AI systems are influenced by the information that’s most common or most visible online. The more frequently something appears, the more weight it can end up having in the model’s responses.
It’s also true that AI can’t access paywalled academic research—the kind you need a subscription to read—so its knowledge is limited to what’s publicly available.
And considering that countries like Russia and Iran operate thousands of bots that shape online content, it’s only logical to approach AI-generated answers with a healthy degree of skepticism.
This answer was written from my own words, just rewritten by AI for clearer English. So it does have its advantages after all.
yes, point made. man, i feel like my hands were caught in the cookie jar. you just killed me with kindness. with brevity now: there is very little evidence to support the notion that Hamas have been in any way effective in waging a "war" since early 2014. that means that after the IDF "Won" (and this did not take long after Oct 7th) they spent close to two years bombarding gaza and flattening it, which by all accounts is collective punishment. i dont need to read Reuters, the BBC or Al Jazeera to support this notion, but I do. You yourself have said in past as have others here - i.e. that there is nothing wrong with collective punishment, and you are a reasonable person. therefore if it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck, and all the other animals in the zoo tell me its a duck, then its a duck. when people go around reinforcing the notion of barbarians, hamapalastinians, no food water or electricity, and worse, then I will accept these comments at face value, AFTER i have verified them, from chatgpt.
finally my argument remains: by doing this, it is not a big deal for israel at face value. the world does not really care about gaza or the west bank, but this is creating the possibility of a mistake by Israel, that would hurt Israel alot. what that mistake is i dont know, but when you treat an entire population like this, for decades, the risk of incidents like Oct 7th, will increase. and Oct 7th was a symptom, not the MISTAKE that i fear may happen. If a mistake comes along, there really wont be much to say about it, noting cause and effect. regrettably.
