It won't provide any race and IQ science other than to say that intelligence testing is controversial. It will write an article about how covid-19 could be man made but won't strongly conclude that it is.
It is another tool for the box and worth checking out if you do a lot of writing tasks.
Here is its results when I asked it for two paragraphs promoting itself:
