Asking ChatGPT for voting advice

 It's elections time in British Columbia, so I asked ChatGPT:

do the bc conservatives or the bc ndp align more with catholic values?

It had a detailed response that ended with:

Conclusion:

BC Conservatives may align more closely with Catholic teachings on pro-life issues, religious freedom, and traditional family values, though these are not always central to their platform.

BC NDP aligns more with the Church’s teachings on social justice, care for the poor and vulnerable, and environmental stewardship, which are key aspects of Catholic social teaching.

A Catholic voter in BC may weigh these different elements depending on which aspects of their faith are most important to them in the political context.

So not a straightforward answer, but gives good food for thought.

Arc Browser

I’m really liking the Arc browser. One cool thing it does is: if you hover over any link and press Shift, it displays a small popup with an AI summary of the web page behind the link.



Another cool thing I learned is you can ask Arc to summarize the current page by pressing Cmd-F, typing "summarize page", the click the Ask button. You can probably ask it other questions about the page as well.
