This comes as AI-generated summaries are increasingly replacing traditional news publications as a primary source for news.
Al Jazeera, the virulently anti-Israel news outlet controlled by Qatar, is one of the two top sources used by leading artificial intelligence chatbots—OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Google Gemini, and Perplexity AI—to answer questions and write news summaries about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, a Washington Free Beacon analysis has found.
ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity—as well as X’s Grok—list Al Jazeera as one of their most reliable sources on the topic.
In response to queries from the Free Beacon, the chatbots praised Al Jazeera for its reliability, “on-the-ground detail,” “academic credibility,” and “global visibility.”
