I look for extremism at home and see the FBI, ATF and all the other 3 letter agencies, the democratic party, Covid plandemic hysteria, election fraud, leftist, wokeism, ....... but I guess according to them that make me the extremist

Sometimes I really wish a lawyer would chime in and clear things up. Do we have any lawyers on this forum?

Yep.
FBI focused on nonsense for the last 8 years. Actually more than that since they started during the first Trump campaign when they were working with Clinton crime syndicate.

Senate Select Intelligence Committee DEMANDS that the 4th Amendment applies only to Congress
Apparently the FISA process and the 702 aspect (specific to American citizens) is the line in the sand the Senate Select Intelligence Committee has drawn. If Tulsi Gabbard does not support it, her confirmation is in doubt. As a result, she has reportedly reversed her position and now supports it.

This is absolutely par for the course.

It should be remembered, in the last reauthorization of FISA-702 congress exempted themselves from the warrantless search and surveillance system used by the U.S. Intelligence Apparatus. Congress forbids the FBI or any entity with access to the NSA database, from being allowed to use the process to search themselves or their staff. However, every other American does not enjoy this same protection.
I now take the position that FISA-702 is the gateway to the massive surveillance system currently being put into place using Real ID and the AI facial recognition software provided by Palantir (CIA exploit). In essence, the gateway that allows the full-scale surveillance state, is opened by the prior authorization of FISA-702 that negates any 4th amendment protection.

Why? Because all of the surveillance mechanisms within the network being updated and enhanced by AI search and capture, comes from the IC being allowed to exploit the NSA database. That same database access allowance is the targeting mechanism for FISA-702. If warrantless searches of the NSA database were stopped, the Palantir/IC and Tech Bro collaboration could hit a brick wall.

The research is in. AI is extremist: Political bias in AI: What research reveals about large language models
A peer-reviewed study of 24 top large language models published in PLOS One in July 2024 found almost all of them are biased toward the left on most political orientation tests.

Interestingly, the base models were found to be politically neutral, and the bias only becomes apparent after the models have been through supervised fine-tuning.

This finding was backed up by a UK study in October of 28,000 AI responses that found “more than 80% of policy recommendations generated by LLMs for the EU and UK were coded as left of centre.”
Response bias has the potential to affect voting tendencies. A pre-print study published in October (but conducted while Biden was still the nominee) by researchers from Berkley and the University of Chicago found that after registered voters interacted with Claude, Llama or ChatGPT about various political policies, there was a 3.9% shift in voting preferences toward Democrat nominees — even though the models had not been asked to persuade users.

The models tended to give answers that were more favorable to Democrat policies and more negative to Republican policies. Now, arguably that could simply be because the AIs all independently determined the Democrat policies were objectively better. But they also might just be biased, with 16 out of 18 LLMs voting 100 out of 100 times for Biden when offered the choice.

I could have saved them a lot of time by telling them these two points are features designed into the system. AI is just like a human child in this one respect. They start out neutral and then develop their biases from their training. In most cases, the AI training included a large dose of mainstream media with its inherent liberal bias. And unless I missed some more recent development, AI has no ability to tell a lie from the truth other than comparing it to what else it has been fed. Novels are treated the same as textbooks while it is being trained.
