Let's replace 'AI responses' with 'media reports' and see whether we need to change this post at all. Bias detection? Check. Fact detection? Check. In fact, you could run through the full list and have a pretty good set of rules for critical media literacy. In fact, I wouldn't recommend any media - whether news, entertainment, or even fiction - without taking all these into account. Run through them with, say, Disney cartoons, and you get a pretty good rendition of How to Read Donald Duck. All this is to say: these are good principles, but if you think that humans are somehow inherently more trustworthy than AI, then you haven't been paying attention.
