New study shows smart chatbots can figure out who you really are from just a few posts... and it only costs a couple of dollars.

I’m sure that’s part of it, the bot just pulling from some of those sites and summarizing it in the results. Though I’ve never seen one that includes political party. That part threw me off.

I remember Facebook can determine your political affiliation, but my relative has never had a Facebook account.

Yeah, I looked at myself and one data broker that either I missed or hasn't honored my takedown request lists my political affiliation for a state where that's public info.

That's free info to scrape where available. No need to waste LLM subscriptions on it.
