A few months ago before Google Bard was rebranded as Gemini, I asked it several questions to assess the state of AI.
Like any “expert” the answer from an AI needs to be verified by human intelligence and may include made up “facts.”
This example asks the AI to compare two documents. I have not verified the AI’s analysis, but present it raw.

Contrast the immigration policy in the 2016 Republican platform and the 2020 Democratic platform.
AI Answer
The 2016 Republican platform and the 2020 Democratic platform differ significantly in their approaches to immigration policy.
The 2016 Republican platform called for a number of measures to reduce immigration, including:
* Building a wall on the US-Mexico border
* Increasing the number of border patrol agents
* Ending sanctuary cities
* Canceling the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program
* Making it more difficult for people to obtain visas
The 2020 Democratic platform, on the other hand, called for a number of measures to expand immigration, including:
* Creating a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants
* Expanding the DACA program
* Reforming the asylum system
* Increasing the number of refugees admitted to the United States
* Ending the travel ban from several Muslim-majority countries
The two platforms also differ in their approach to border security. The 2016 Republican platform emphasizes the need for a physical barrier on the US-Mexico border. The 2020 Democratic platform, on the other hand, focuses on investing in technology and personnel to improve border security.
In addition, the 2016 Republican platform calls for a reduction in legal immigration. The 2020 Democratic platform, on the other hand, calls for an increase in legal immigration.
The two platforms also differ in their approach to family reunification. The 2016 Republican platform calls for making it more difficult for people to sponsor family members for immigration to the United States. The 2020 Democratic platform, on the other hand, calls for making it easier for people to sponsor family members for immigration to the United States.
Overall, the 2016 Republican platform and the 2020 Democratic platform reflect the two parties’ very different views on immigration policy. The Republican platform is focused on reducing immigration, while the Democratic platform is focused on expanding immigration.
