Group History: This group started out with a focus on INFP's only, but that was rather narrow, and the meetups were found to be ultimately more rewarding if any and all of the 16 types could interact.
These meetups are intended to be non-structured, informal and allow for maximum interaction between members. However, those who wish and feel qualified to give a presentation on a relevant topic, are welcome to schedule it in advance by contacting the organizer. Members frequently talk about subjects besides MBTI. The main topic of this Meetup serves more as a starting point for discussion rather than as an end in itself. People are free to mingle and talk with whomever they find interesting. All personality types are equally welcome. This is the place to be if you'd like to socialize with people who wish to understand themselves and other personalities better. Join us www.facebook.com/groups/331433710348657/

You can have LLMs with various bias check each other’s fact checks and then try to find the primary sources they claim exist.
You can use this prompt to fact check: Please clarify what is accurate, misleading, or outright false in this article: \A little about our host:

•OnlineFTI: Can We Trust Our Government Institutions?
OnlineFrom Congress and the courts to agencies and local offices, government institutions hold immense power over our daily lives. Yet public trust in them has been declining for decades. What makes a government institution worthy of trust? What warning signs show if and when it is failing the people it serves?
This conversation invites us to look deeper into the foundations of democracy, accountability, and transparency. Together, we’ll explore whether our government institutions are living up to their promises—and what it would take to restore trust where it’s been lost.
