One of my favorite use cases for ChatGPT / Claude / Perplixity is asking:

1. What are the political leanings of a writer / historian / academic with summary and/or supporting evidence

2. Who is a contemporary on the same subject with the most credible opposing views

3. Asking for the single best book summarizing the point of view for or against

Works for books, too.

What exactly do you derive from weighing the view side by side? is that what you use as basis for the side you eventually choose?
