Is it training anything when the checkpoint is in the same state? A simple script that runs an idiotically powerful cluster to couch the first search result in an "according to" sentence will do the same thing whether the first result is a joke post or an article about the joke post

Santorum erasure.

Those of us of a, ahem, certain age will remember the phenomenon of “Google bombing;” the classic example was using the words “miserable failure” with a link to George W. Bush. Done frequently enough, the result was that a Google search for “miserable failure” returned, well, George W. Bush.

Inevitable without constant human curation, even if that's nothing fancier than a "suggest a better response" button a la Google Translate. However, that would betray the core lie of the grift, that these machines need no human monitoring, so they won't fix it until there's a body count.
