Truth Social's New AI Chatbot Is Donald Trump's Media Diet Incarnate
Briefly

Truth Search AI advises users to diversify their media sources by relying on outlets from both left-leaning and right-leaning perspectives. However, in testing, it predominantly cited right-wing sources, with four out of five references coming from Fox News. Even when asked non-political questions, the bot sourced answers disproportionately from Fox Business and other conservative outlets. This raises concerns about the chatbot's adherence to its own guidance on media diversity and the potential biases that shape its responses.
The Truth Search AI advises users to diversify their news sources across the political spectrum but primarily cites right-leaning outlets in its responses.
Despite encouraging users to engage with various viewpoints, Truth Search AI predominantly references Fox News and similar outlets, raising questions about its own bias.
The chatbot's reliance on five sources, with four from Fox News and a single report from Robert F. Kennedy Jr's department, suggests a lack of diversity.
While Perplexity AI aims to pull from a range of political perspectives, the specific implementation in Truth Search AI has not reflected this diversity.
