"a machine gun with a magazine and a magazine"

Technically true, a magazine article about a machine gun's magazine.

AI in progress. I think it's a gimmick, AI just collates sources, so, who chooses the sources, and since when will every source call every unique item by the same name? That's just the start.

These types of AI have been around for 30 years. I have had experience with it in the publishing industry about 20 years ago. Entire books are written by AI with just a little input from a human being. Think about the type of books that come out every that are the same but just a little different like baby names, crosswords, joke books, or anything with a top 100 type of list. Very little if anything new is added, they are just regurgitated using some new statistics fed into the AI by a human being. Now it's just more compact code (or self learning self expanding) and cheap even free.

I understand. I used to be involved in computerised numerical machine tools. I developed a concept now called machine learning, I called it CASSIE, I forget what that stood for, and was basically going to write a thesis on it, but gumbyment scrapped the import tarrifs, and as I was involved in manufacturing... sob story... Anyway, a few years ago I talked with a man who owns two robots, he told me more than he realised. When he makes a dye he wants the robots to copy so many times and the machine measures it, it's two steps ahead of what I envisaged. The steps are logical. As far as he's concerned he just tells the robot how he wants things made. He has no idea of the software steps involved, he just cares that he has a good product.

What you're describing is more like a (long) form letter and auto-format. Not adjusting to tell different audiences what you want them to 'learn' (what George Bush junior called 'internets'). What's now called AI is insidious: if you hand over your education to an alien power they will adjust it to suit their geopolitical interests.

Yanks imagine:
their constitution runs here. No;
their law runs here. No;
their courts have jurisdiction here. No;
their dictionary runs here. No.
their national doctrines define our world. No;
there's no such thing as the Westminster system, that it's either their way or communism. No;
they are the oldest democracy. No;
Australia is in Oceania. No;
we will become republics when Queen Elizabeth dies. No;
their economic model has sovereignty over us, as it does over their country. No.

Do you trust your education to them?

The problem can be boiled down to one key retard (possibly now retired), his lecture has been removed from youtube and replaced with another that, from memory, has the same name (The Western Tradition And The Wars Of Religion?), but he taught generations of new members of the yank establishment that: "People will accept anything imposed from above, there just has to be sufficient crisis!" So they set out to cause crisis, imagining they will benefit - undermining their own country. They did just that when a virus turned up. Imagine what they can do with a collating and presentation exercise where they decide the sources and what's known about you determines how an algorithm adjusts the presentation. For starters.
