Wikipedia isn't giving you advice, it's giving you information. There is a big difference between me taking information and forming an opinion, versus being given an opinion by a system that is responding to a specific situation explained to it.
Also, people get in trouble for giving legal advice, artificial unintelligence('s companies) should as well.
Okay lets try this then:
Show me the difference.
No, they don't, unless they are genuinely misrepresenting their positions. Sovcit influencers are well within their rights to make up all kinds of gobbly-gookey-garbage pseudo-legal advice.
People who get in trouble are those that follow the gobbly-gookey-garbage pseudo-legal advice.
They aren't giving you information either. They're just compiling tokens.
the difference between giving information and giving advice is context. if i know your situation, i am giving advice. if i am just talking about the law in general, i am giving information. the former, i know context. the latter, i don't.
Let's swap out a chatbot with a sloptuber on YouTube making up stuff about sovereign citizen nonsense. How about then.
