I did some checking around on the web and it seems that the partnership is a standard API license where Perplexity provides the technical infrastructure and Truth Social makes requests to there. The AI does contradict Trump regularly according to the Washington post: https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2025/08/10/truth-social-trump-ai-chatbot-perplexity/
So I'm not sure if this is massively wrong. Or at least, not as bad as I thought it would be.
