    Proper trolling would not misspell international.  It makes it look like your criticism was not serious, which it wasn't.

    Free from bias:

    Scenario one : I drop a 10,000 word article onto one of the big name online foundation models.  Foundation models are the big boys.  The article deeply goes into the history of the Houthis and how they started out as ----- Ansar Allah ("Partisans of God"), a political-military faction and Zaydi religious movement founded in northwestern Yemen in the 1980s to fight corruption and foreign influence. 

    We do not have to know what else is in the article because if you have any common sense at all you know the foundation model which for the blink of an eye used as much power as a small city should say more than, after feeding in the rules I have created to extract a summary only says :

    "The Houthis are a terrorist organization."

    So, it turns out even silicon kisses orange ass.  Not just silicone as it turns out.

    In contrast my hardware only turns on the equivalent of a 300 watt light bulb for 20 seconds, and then an answer pops out that is shockingly accurate.  And which would have taken a human twenty minutes to come up with.  Because you would have to read the article thoroughly, taking copious notes.  At the end of that write something only to encounter a rule that says you have to verify that the main point has been captured and is accurate.

    It comes down to the system prompt, which can be as devious or as honest as you like.  I think mine is pretty honest, and in a 10,000 word article it should always give more than one line of bullshit.  But I can't give you common sense you don't have.  An author can put out the good, the bad, or the ugly.  And that is exactly what will be summarized if a fair prompt is used.


    QuoteSummarize the provided text in 50 words or fewer, excluding numbers and symbols. Output a single well-written paragraph containing no bullets, headings, quotes, or commentary. Capture the core theme and major points while ignoring extraneous content. Use standard English punctuation, but strictly avoid all dashes (em dashes, en dashes, or hyphens used as punctuation). Instead, use commas, semicolons, colons, or transitional phrases to connect clauses. Hyphens are permitted solely for standard compound words. Output only the final summary paragraph.


     "seems to be free of bias" actually means exactly that.  Propaganda can pass a smell test yet still be rotten.  Propaganda can be subtle, and if it is hidden inside the model a prompt won't catch it.
