   This seems to be the most pressing issue at the moment as we are   
   already seeing it happen.  It doesn't even need to become sentient (sp?) to   
   reach that stage.   
      
   What I still find funny is that Grok, Musk's AI bot, was still giving   
   answers that were not at all flattering to him or MAGA.  Recently, someone   
   posted alleged results that showed that Grok "knew" that it was being fed   
   data to make it biased (in favor of Musk) but that it still concluded   
   otherwise. ;)

   Yep!

   Indeed, just as an "enabler" human might do.
