“We’re from the government, and we’re here to help.” Be afraid. Be very afraid.

This entire article stands as a cogent argument for a dramatically smaller government.

It is a fantasy bordering on Rousseau's "noble savage" contemptible fantasy, to consider AI engines as tools in the search for truth. More honestly they are tools to make money for their developers, and there are too many examples of AI producing lies.

Further, your article implies that government is the main actor in suppressing the truth. Recent history has demonstrated that corporations and non-government entities can be just as interested and even more capable of bending or wiping out the truth. There are several examples of that over the past century if you'll look.
