Until it can sort the wheat from the chaff, it's utterly useless in most common fields of public discourse.
When the words of POTUS are almost completely fabricated, the pronouncements of major departments of the government are utterly unreliable, even the law is as malleable as putty, AI cannot be expected to get anything right. EVER!

Far too many governments have given themselves the right to lie.

Humans can't discern the lies. Therefore mere mortals cannot possibly program anything to do so.
Even majority consensus among a majority of liars is still a LIE.
