Dear Americans. I use Gemini as a reading assistant for non fiction books. Currently I am reading The origins of totalitarianism by Hannah Arendt and I was asking about parallels in modern US society. I noticed something odd. While questions about historical facts are answered definitively and accurately, questions relating to January 6th are answered with some sort of ",oh well people don't agree" garbage.

After a long dialogue about it and asking what the scholarly consensus was, I finally got the correct answer.

I just wanted to raise this because it looks sus to me in a big way but maybe I am overreacting? It felt like gas lighting. Also practically nobody in the free world is under any illusion of what January 6 was.

Knowing what I know about LLMs and Google, using the Google LLM as a reading assistant seems like possibly the worst idea.
