The core of Google's business model is using AI to manipulate what people see. (Hint: Mostly ads.) Whether you want to argue it's politically-biased is a separate discussion.
Spam filtering is arguably using AI to manipulate what the user sees. In that case, it's less spam. A lot of AI is focused on finding what's the most interesting/valuable to the user, removing "bad" data, etc.
Members of most political parties, arguably, would like fake news and misinformation to be curated away, it's just that those parties often disagree with what news is "fake".
