'Repeatedly Debunked': Top AI Platforms Flatly Deny Ilhan Omar Married Her Brother, Ignore Strong Evidence She Did

Silicon Valley’s AI chatbots contend with supreme confidence that Ilhan Omar did not marry her brother, ignoring strong evidence to the contrary, our Alana Goodman reports. As the long-running allegations receive fresh attention from Donald Trump, leading AI platforms like OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Anthropic’s Claude, Perplexity, and Google’s Gemini are dismissing them as “debunked” conspiracy theories.

The posture of the chatbots reveals the bias of their mainstream media sources and a new frontier in the information wars. Some journalists, just not the ones the chatbots are relying on, have reported extensively on the overlap between Omar’s 2009 marriage—conducted by a priest—to Ahmed Nur Said Elmi, and her “religious” marriage with the father of her children, Ahmed Hirsi. Members of the Somali community in Minnesota have said they were introduced to Elmi as Omar’s brother.

AI is bunk.

It will get worse as overwhelmed information sites that might of provided some balance are driven off.

If was false, she and her alleged brother would refute it — and sue big time — by an open and monitored DNA test.

“and sue big time”

They’d have to prove actual malice. Good luck with that.

ChatGPt is pathetically woke.

Ask it the IQ of Somalia and it gives you a lecture about how the question is racist and why evil white colonists are to blame for all of Somalia’s problems.

The rush to AI is I think mostly by those who do not know God. They consider it to be the Holy Grail, and so far, many of them look at those of us who know better with particular disdain. It is void of Devine Inspiration and wisdom. It also produces oddly disturbing ‘music’.

I avoid anything with AI, won’t let anyone think for me, but I do invest in NVIDIA, Tesla and AMD.
