Very cool. Instead of MPs I think you might want to say "Representatives" etc. How to fill out the rest of the data too? Anyway, just wanted to +1. And it's cool you're building in an open way.
How do you handle innate LLM biases? I forget which model, but when asked to edit pro Zionist vs pro Palestinian content it showed heavy bias in one direction.
LLMs let you cover more ground but the fundamental problem of “who to trust” still remains. I don’t see how one can ever be used to strip political spin. It’s baked in.
You can't strip it completely, totally agree. Any compression of information is already an interpretation. The problem becomes more prevalent, the more thinking and advanced models become. To mitigate it, I rely on some constraints:
1. No opinion space: the prompt forbids normative language and forces fact to consequence mapping only (“what changes, for whom, and how”), not evaluation.
2. Outputs are framed explicitly from the perspective of an average citizen of a given country. This narrows the context and avoids abstract geopolitical or ideological extrapolation.
3. Heuristic models over reasoning models: for this task, fast pattern-matching models produce more stable summaries than deliberative models that tend to over-interpret edge cases.
It’s not bias-free, but it’s more constrained and predictable than editorial framing.
(Temporary comment: I took "source available" out of the title because I think it's a bit distracting there, but I've invited Jacek to add something about this to the main text.)
- Friend of mine is Albanian
- Albania wants to join the European Union
- They are required to ensure that their laws don't have "internal conflicts" e.g. one law says something is legal, a different law says it's illegal
- Reviewing by hand would take a lot of work
- Friend uses an LLM to analyze the Albanian laws and find any of these conflicts
Apparently it worked out pretty well

Couldn't even pay people to read this literally
I think there needs to be like a military style debate globally on education levels it's that bad like actually that bad yeah
Here in Chicago
I'm dealing with probably a solid 70% of adults who don't know how to read correctly try fitting that into the LLM experience I don't know
As someone complaining about how people can't read, it may do you much benefit to learn how to write.
