we don't need "balanced news", that is fundamentally wrong idea.
when political party A suggests resolution that the earth is flat and B rejects it, the "balanced news" is not "A and B can't agree on the shape of earth".
we need trustworthy news and these can't be generated by ai.
The idea is to show different perspectives on an issue as media can become quite polarized. Let people know all perspectives, and allow them to come to their own conclusions.
the problem is sometime there are no multiple perspectives, some things are just not a matte of opinion, but hard facts. and if you have truth on one side and bullshit on the other, no matter what the sides are, there is no middle road.
we need real reporting done by respectable journalists, not bullshit generated by ai. nothing personal against you, but i really hope this project will be a failure, because it this should have been future, it would be truly dystopian one.
Your selection of source sites is inherently unbalanced. Your 'left' sites are centre/centre-right and everything else is to the right of that.
I brought this to his attention earlier, and he seems to have fixed it for future posts.
Take LGBTQ+ rights. Hell, even narrow down to trans rights. One side finds people like me inconvenient to talk about, the other wants us to be denied all medical care despite the disastrous effects that has on suicide rates (eso amongst trans kids). What is the "balanced" perspective there? What's the "center" view that you're striving to achieve using your stochastic parrot engines?
Even if LLMs did what you claim they did (they don't), your stated objectives are reprehensible and, if successful, will get people killed.
