Ever read a headline and thought, “Something feels off, but I can’t explain why?”

I built CLARi, a custom GPT designed not just to verify facts—but to train your instincts for clarity, logic, and truth.

Instead of arguing back, CLARi shows you how claims:

  • Distort your perception (even if technically true)

  • Trigger emotions to override logic

  • Frame reality in a way that feels right—but misleads

She uses tools like:

🧭 Clarity Compass – to break down vague claims

🧠 Emotional Persuasion Detector – to spot manipulative emotional framing

🧩 Context Expansion – to expose what’s being left out

Whether it’s news, social media, or “alternative facts,” CLARi doesn’t just answer—she trains you to see through distortion.

Try asking her something polarizing like:

👉 “Was 5G ever proven unsafe?”

👉 “Is crime actually going up, or is it just political noise?”

She’s open to all with this link —designed to challenge bias, dissect manipulation, and help you think clearer than ever.

Let me know what you think! Thanks Lemmy FAM!

    Here’s an example, if anyone is interested:

    prompt: 5g causes cancer

    response:

    💬 Claim: “5G causes cancer.”
    🔍 Analysis: 🟠 Misleading Correlation


    📌 Distortion Analysis (Perception Distortion Scale)

    This claim misrepresents correlation as causation, which is one of the most common distortion patterns. It sounds alarming but lacks solid scientific grounding.


    What Does the Evidence Say?

    • 5G uses non-ionizing radiation, which does not carry enough energy to damage DNA or cause mutations—unlike ionizing radiation (like X-rays or gamma rays).
    • Large regulatory and scientific bodies (like the World Health Organization, FDA, CDC, and ICNIRP) have not found credible evidence linking 5G exposure to cancer when exposure remains within internationally accepted limits.
    • Some animal studies (e.g., on rats exposed to high levels of radiofrequency) have shown effects at levels much higher than humans ever experience, making them inapplicable to real-world 5G conditions.

    🛠️ Why This Claim Persists (Clarity Toolkit Insight)

    This is a classic case of distortion via emotional triggers and misframing, especially fear-based framing:

    • Fear of Harm: Suggests danger without proof.
    • 🔀 Framing Effect: Reframes uncertainty (“not proven safe”) as proof of danger.
    • 🔎 Distortion Filter: The claim bypasses relevant scientific context and exploits public unfamiliarity with radiation types.
    • 🧭 Reality Alignment Check:
      • Falsifiability → If new, repeatable evidence emerged showing harm at real-world exposure levels, the scientific consensus would shift.
      • Source Check → Most “5G = cancer” claims stem from unverified, fringe, or misinterpreted sources, not from peer-reviewed meta-analyses.

    🧠 Perception Note

    This claim preys on scientific uncertainty—the fact that science is always “open” to new findings is reframed to imply something is being hidden or ignored.

    ✅ Bottom Line:

    📌 There is no credible evidence that 5G causes cancer.
    📌 The claim is based on misinterpretation, emotional manipulation, and out-of-context data.
