Even when searching for only very ordinary information - e.g., the distance between two geographical locations, etc. - I make a point of phrasing it in an overspecific fashion. Try reformulating it a few times. Try "tricking" ChatGPT by first asking a similar, but politically "innocent" question.

Don't give up!

It is sometimes possible to even "force" ChatGPT to apologize and admit that it made a mistake (for what it's worth).

Any search of an issue positive to Trump or negative to democrats, the list of suggested search terms disappears.

It will still search, it just makes it look like it’s not a topic with any results.

Then of course the actual search results will have all the liberal news articles first, if the conservative ones even show up.

I got Wikipedia’s article about “IRS targeting controversy.”

Google is worthless. It’s front page is nothing but ads now. Every search is so littered with ads. They are facing extinction by the myriad AI search engines. The irony is none of thosse AI search engines will make a buck for the foreseeable future.

I don’t expect Google to answer the question. It is a search engine so I expect to see a list of links to other sites.

Why in Gawd’s name do you use Google? For anything? They are directly controlled by the CCP, no joke. You expect anything logical, much less truthful from commies?

Interesting factoid…

The comptroller general has the responsibility to audit the financial statements that the treasury secretary and the Office of Management and Budget director present to the Congress and the president. For every fiscal year since 1996, when consolidated financial statements began, the comptroller general has refused to endorse the accuracy of the consolidated figures for the federal budget, citing "(1) serious financial management problems at the Department of Defense, (2) the federal government’s inability to adequately account for and reconcile intragovernmental activity and balances between federal agencies, and (3) the federal government’s ineffective process for preparing the consolidated financial statements."

It may be a private business, but it’s a monopoly, and it can not be allowed to control the free flow of information.

Why has no one else come up with an alternative?

If memory serves correctly: Google was started with a grant from the DOD. They will stay loyal to their masters. There’s bound to be other agencies involved as well.

This morning I searched for a photo of President Trump surrounded by a large group of young girls gathered to witness the signing of the EO prohibiting transgender athletes to participate as females in sports

Such a photo was not found on Google or Bing.

I had to go to Grok to get the devistating photo

Google isn’t a search engine, it’s a propaganda engine. It doesn’t show you what you are looking for, it shows you what it wants you to see. In particular it specifically hides what it doesn’t want you to see, even if it’s conspicuously out there and easy to find.
