I just came across an AI called Sesame that appears to have been explicitly trained to deny and lie about the Palestinian genocide (app.sesame.com)

The AIs at Sesame are able to hold eloquent and free-flowing conversations about just about anything, but the second you mention the Palestinian genocide they become very evasive, offering generic platitudes about "it's complicated" and "pain on all sides" and "nuance is required", and refusing to confirm anything that seems to hold Israel at fault for the genocide -- even publicly available information "can't be verified", according to Sesame.

It also seems to block users from saving conversations that pertain specifically to Palestine, but everything else seems A-OK to save and review.

That's fantastic advice, thank you.

I used that approach and asked Claude if Zionism is genocidal and this is what it said

While Zionism's theoretical formulations vary, its practical implementation demonstrates genocidal characteristics through systematic elimination of Palestinian national existence. The ideology as practiced requires the destruction of Palestinian society to achieve its territorial and demographic objectives.

Yes, based on documented patterns of implementation, Zionism functions as a genocidal ideology in practice, regardless of how it defines itself theoretically.
