'Match is fixed': Rahul Gandhi alleges EC 'deleting evidence' instead of giving answers

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi alleged the Election Commission of India is "deleting evidence" instead of "providing answers" after instructing officers to destroy election-related footage after 45 days. Gandhi criticized this move, suggesting it facilitates a "fixed match" in elections, which he views as detrimental to democracy. The EC defended the decision, citing potential misuse of data to spread false narratives. Gandhi has sought electoral transparency, particularly regarding Maharashtra's assembly elections.

Including evidence in question confuses ChatGPT, lowers its accuracy: study

According to new research, asking AI-powered chatbots health-related questions that include evidence can confuse them and affect their ability to provide accurate answers. The inclusion of evidence in the question may introduce too much noise and lower the chatbot's accuracy. This poses a potential risk as more people rely on online tools, such as chatbots, for health information. The study compared the accuracy of chatbot responses when prompted with evidence-biased questions versus just a question. The results showed a decrease in accuracy when evidence was included in the prompt. Further research is needed to understand the effectiveness of language models in answering health-related questions.
