TODO:

  • address problems (below)

  • pipe msgs to google translate for English <-> Hungarian translation
  • setup youtube searcher to find political content of interest
  • employ models to learn from content (audio and commentary)
  • use generative models taught in political psychology to make balanced responses such as raising questions, effectively breaking orthodoxy

Problems

  • how has the distribution of political views evolved in the Hungarian population?
  • can the distribution in public commentary on social media and online media platforms be changed by intervention?
