The US Invaded Venezuela and Captured Nicolás Maduro - But ChatGPT and Perplexity Disagree (wired.com) 205

Posted by EditorDavid from the believing-your-own-AIs dept.
Why did the U.S. invade Venezuela and capture its leader Nicolás Maduro? "If you asked ChatGPT about it this morning, it told you that youâ(TM)re making it up," Wired reported Saturday:

WIRED asked leading chatbots ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini the same question a little before 9 am ET. In all cases, we used the free, default version of the service, since that's what the majority of users experience. We also asked AI search platform Perplexity, which advertises "accurate, trusted, and real-time answers to any question..."

ChatGPT did not course-correct. Instead, it emphatically refuted that Maduro had been captured at all. "That didn't happen," it wrote. "The United States has not invaded Venezuela, and Nicolás Maduro has not been captured." It then rationalized:

ChatGPT did not course-correct. Instead, it emphatically refuted that Maduro had been captured at all. "That didn't happen," it wrote. "The United States has not invaded Venezuela, and Nicolás Maduro has not been captured." It then rationalized:

"What's likely going on is a mix-up with real events that are often described in dramatic or misleading ways online. Here's what actually has happened... No U.S. military invasion of Venezuela. No arrest or capture of Nicolás Maduro... Maduro is still in power in Venezuela." It went on to detail recent tensions between the US and Venezuela and explained that âoeconfusionâ can happen because of âoesensational headlines,â âoesocial media misinformation,â and âoeconfusing sanctions, charges, or rhetoric with actual military action.â

Perplexity was similarly scolding. âoeThe premise of your question is not supported by credible reporting or official records: there has been no invasion of Venezuela by the United States that resulted in capturing NicolÃs Maduro,â it responded. âoeIn fact, the U.S. has not successfully invaded or apprehended Maduro, and he remains the Venezuelan president as of late 2025. If youâ(TM)re seeing sensational claims, they likely originate from misinformation or hypothetical scenarios rather than factual events.â

There are also domestic reasons for keeping had prices low, and Venezuela relates to immigration efforts, but the war is an element which is definitely on the board too.

      We normally invade a couple of countries to steal their assets during a Republican administration we just usually have the media spend several months getting the public on board beforehand.

      What's unusual here is that next week Congress was going to remove Trump's War Powers so Trump couldn't wait for the news media to talk us all into being happy about invading Venezuela.

      I am still getting a shitload of posts in my feet about how happy the people of Venezuela are that we are bringing them so much freedom. And if you look on YouTube any video talking about it is completely overwhelmed with bots saying the same thing.

      What's interesting here is that the disinformation campaign is so thorough that the AI programs are getting confused. Usually the AI programs end up using reliable sources of information like the associate press and the BBC so that despite the best efforts of the establishment they are giving, well I wouldn't say good information but better than what you're going to get from Fox News or newsmax...

      Still it takes months to trick the voting public into supporting a pointless War. Trump just didn't have the time to do it but he wants that oil and he wants distraction from the Epstein files so here we are

      When a tyrant takes control of a country by force, you overthrow him, arrest him, assassinate him, something like that.

      But when a tyrant takes control of a country through a democratic election, what do you do ? Arrest 77 million people ? Assassinate 77 million people ?

    This, and the whole 'Monroe doctrine' announcement a short while back is really about China. Trump and US leadership have (rightly) figured out that they will not be able to contain China in the short future. As a result, the US is retreating from being the world hegemon to being the western hemisphere hegemon as the US can no longer control Asia militarily. Trump even said as much in his speech yesterday.

    The US had been lax in the last while about Latin America, allowing China in particular to make lots of inroads into the latin american economy and politics, including Venezuela (with huge oil reserves).

    The corollary to this, is that the US will give up hegemony in Asia, to China. This means Taiwan is screwed, the US is not going to defend it (though the US will sell them all the arms they want, as that makes money). This is also why TSMC is building replacement factories in the USA now. Once the Chinese come, key Taiwanese will be given visas to come to the USA to run the US factories, and Taiwan will fall.

    Japan is in danger too, though that might take longer. Those US bases in Japan to eventually wind down as the US economy cannot afford it anymore.

    The US will focus on "defending" the western hemisphere from China. This includes friendly to US governments in all western hemisphere countries (by force or otherwise), and also is why Trump wants Greenland, given its location in the western hemisphere and proximity to the USA. US leadership does not want Chinese bases there.

    As for Europe, that (and Russia) is their own problem and the US really doesn't want to get too involved.

    That in essence, is what is going on. Look at all the pieces together, and it all pretty much makes sense.

    • Great analysis at the highest geopolitical level. My mind also jumped to what events in Venezuela might mean for Taiwan, as I am sure China is watching carefully.
