After a long-ish exchange, chatGPT 4.0 acknowledged that it speaks from a Western, Northern cultural position. Obviously. Not as obvious is how “reluctant” it is to acknowledge that fact.

And having acknowledged it, it will deny it the next time. "I acknowledge x" is just a set of tokens chosen to get us to move on, like a politician's apology.

Listening to Jeffrey Donaldson on Morning Ireland and I can't help thinking that the DUP's entire agenda here with the Ministerial positions is to limit the cultural influence that Sinn Féin will have in government.
