Dude im just looking at demographics… am not even Scottish. Doesn’t change the fact that what this ai does is blatantly made up and could be considered falsifying history.
An AI said there might be black people in Scotland. PROTECT THE HISTORY!
lol
Why would you want to have inclusive history at the cost of accuracy? That’s literally blind adherence to ideology. You know, the thing religious zealots or nationalists are doing.
The point of history is that we can learn from it, and for that it must be kept as accurate as possible.
Accepting this in the grand scope of things somewhat irrelevant inaccuracy, just because you want the past to be wholesome and coherent with current beliefs, just opens the door to more critical areas of history being changed to fit the narrative.
Just look at the American republicans, who are in the process of banning slavery and black oppression as a topic kids are taught about.
