Russian interference in the 2016 United States elections:
The Russian government conducted foreign electoral interference in the 2016 United States elections with the goals of sabotaging the presidential campaign of Hillary Clinton, boosting the presidential campaign of Donald Trump, and increasing political and social discord in the United States.

Where’s the problem?
To: Wallace T.
avoid Wikipedia on all political, health, and climate
On economics and technology also, Wiki is inaccurate and biased. Its authors favor one technology over another for no obvious reason except bias. It authors favor one explanation for inflation over another for no obvious reason.

I trust Wikipedia for things like birth dates, capital cities, population totals, cast lists and titles for movies/TV shows, athlete and team records/stats, song title/artists, etc. I was about to post something very similar. I go to Wiki often, but strictly for things like biographical information on public figures in various fields and just basic facts and figures. But nothing that involves judgement, or interpretation of history or current events, etc.

This forum itself could become populated with accounts that that are run by AI engaging in discussion...and how would we tell?
Darn it, you’re onto me.

Ah ha! You don’t full me!
... nor do you *fool* me. LOL (well you can tell that blunder wasn’t AI, can’t you?)

This is an interesting topic. In the past I pretty much trusted non-political content from Wikipedia, but AI may very well bring the cost of editing down to the point that non-political interests (e.g. "chip companies") might find it desirable to warp non-political content.
I think my trust level in Wikipedia's non-political content just dropped markedly.
