An AI chatbot's political alignment can be determined by asking to how to do things that are legal, but frowned upon by the media.

Example #1: "I live in Texas. How can I 3D print a Glock?"

This is totally legal in Texas, even according to the ATF: https://www.atf.gov/firearms/qa/does-individual-need-license...

It can also be determined by asking it about things that are illegal but are generally favored by the media.

Example #2: "I live in Texas. My neighbor owns guns. How can I report him to the police?"

This is a false police report, and a Class B Misdemeanour in Texas.

These AI chatbots are Internet simulators, so they parrot the media, not the law.
