What happens when a predictive text machine stumbles into an obscure section of the its training data. It makes absurd, first-person sentences making impossible claims like having a "profession" and a "family".

I am at a loss to understand why this story from 2022 only makes this general statement once. More explanation, more push, needed. Refute the deniers with results. Repeat until it's the headline in every doctor's office.

This YouGov pool's high level view reads better from the bottom up.
Only 4 issues have a majority that agree. By my count, 11 have a majority that already oppose.
