Yours truly reads, watches, and hears from left-leaning sources on a near-daily basis and has for years. That said, I also spend time listening to WMAL, Relevant Radio, and check out conservative or center-right leaning sources daily too. It is my goal to understand what a source or group says and why.

Yours truly reads, watches, and hears from left-leaning sources on a near-daily basis and has for years. That said, I spend time listening to WMAL, Relevant Radio, and check out conservative or center-right leaning sources too. This afternoon, listening to Nina Shea with the Hudson Institute being interviewed about the Jimmy Lai case helped me decide on today's topic here on the Patch. Millions of Americans have little or no accurate understanding of what life is like in Communist China or Communist Chinese controlled Hong Kong. With that backdrop, I asked left-leaning Google's Gemini to respond to the inquiry below. Note that Gemini has agreed that it and other Large Language Model (LLM) style AI systems lean left. More on that further below, but first the Q&A with Gemini.

Gemini, new topic. I was listening to Relevant Radio while I was working and Nina Shea with the Hudson Institute has been talking about the Jimmy Lai case that the Communist Chinese government brought against him. See Speak Up for Jimmy Lai, China’s Most Dangerous Dissident — And for Hong Kong’s Liberties | Hudson Institute and https://www.hudson.org/human-r... and via New York Post: Speak up for brave dissident Jimmy Lai — and for Hong Kong Does Shea’s post factually and accurately describe the issues? Is it true that Jimmy Lai became a Catholic convert after growing up in a secular society influenced by Communist Chinese atheism? Unpack that and related using plain text hyperlinks to support your findings.

=== Gemini responded as shown below. ===

Jimmy Lai's Conversion to Catholicism

It is a well-documented fact that Jimmy Lai converted to Catholicism in 1997. His journey to faith is particularly notable given his background.

The follow up with Google's Gemini.

Is it fair and accurate to say that Google, your parent company Gemini, has often been accused of cooperating with Communist Chinese authorities? Use plain text hyperlinks to support your reply.

Yes, it is fair and accurate to say that Google has often been accused of cooperating with Communist Chinese authorities.

Here is a summary of the key points and supporting evidence from various sources:

  • Initial Entry and Censorship: In 2006, Google launched a censored version of its search engine, google.cn, in mainland China. The company complied with the government's strict censorship policies, blocking results on politically sensitive topics like the Tiananmen Square protests and the Falun Gong movement. This decision was met with widespread criticism from human rights organizations and U.S. lawmakers.
  • The 2010 Shift: In 2010, after a cyberattack originating from China that targeted the Gmail accounts of Chinese human rights activists, Google announced it would no longer censor search results. It redirected users from google.cn to its uncensored Hong Kong site, google.com.hk. As a result, the Chinese government blocked most of Google's services in mainland China.
  • Project Dragonfly: In 2018, news leaked about a new, secretive project within Google code-named "Dragonfly." This was a prototype for a censored search engine for the Chinese market. Internal documents revealed it would have censored search results on topics such as human rights, democracy, and religion and that it would have linked users' phone numbers to their search queries. This project faced major backlash from Google employees, human rights groups, and U.S. politicians, and was reportedly "terminated" in 2019.
  • Ongoing Cooperation and Takedown Requests: Despite the termination of the Dragonfly project and the blocking of many of its services, Google has continued to operate in China, primarily through its advertising business and an AI research center. Investigations have revealed that Google has, on occasion, complied with requests from the Chinese government to remove content from its platforms, such as YouTube videos.

So, keep in mind who and what Gemini and Google are. Keep in mind what Communism is.

MHProNews has documented that Google confirmed that AI models tend to lean left.

https://www.manufacturedhomeli...

Update: Minutes after this article was posted, Gemini was asked to verify the accuracy of the transcript of this Q&A with it.

For whatever reasons, Gemini at first said it could not access this posted article. That said, after being given the PDF of this article plus the link, it confirmed the accuracy of the transcript of the Q&A shown above.
