This work is ongoing, and mistakes will continue to be made.

Each post POTUS Tracker summarizes will make it better at its job and I thank everyone for their support through the process.

The challenge is balance. If the LLM is too skeptical of the language used in a post, the AI will accumulate false positive lies.

It may produce misinformation, questioning the passage of laws and signing of presidential actions.

This was common in testing.

For example, the AI has never called Prime Minister Trudeau “Governor Trudeau."

But it’s not perfect. This morning, it failed to put "illegal protests" in quotes.

It also reiterated, without quotes, that American banks don't operate in Canada.

However, this reliance also creates a challenge. If the source has bias, the AI can sometimes reflect it in the summary.

That’s why a major focus of POTUS Tracker is reducing this bias. And so far, it’s been pretty successful!

It is running on cloudflare’s CDN. The cost comes from the API calls and other overhead for processing the information.

I’ve gotten a lot of generous donations for the site. It’s more of a long term sustainability issue.

These features would incur a monthly cost on my part not a one time fee.

Sorry about that. This is my top priority bug right now!
