How is "threat" being defined in this context? What has the AI been prompted to interpret as a "threat"?

I figured. I'm just wondering about what's going on under the hood of the LLM when it's trying to decide what a "threat" is, absent of additional context.

Haha. Trained in racism is going on under the hood.

Also, there was a comment on "arbitrary scoring for demo purposes", but it's still biased, based on biased dataset.

I guess this is just a bait prompt anyway. If you asked most politicians running your government, they'd probably also fail. I guess only people like a national statistics office might come close, and I'm sure if they're any good, they'd say that the algo is based on "limited, and possibly not representative data" or something.

I also like the touch that only the race part gets the apologizing comment.
