I'm pretty it is deeply biased in favor of the left:

I mean, just ask about any political situation and it will just read you the mainstream narrative that one would hear in the New York Times and Washington Posts like, which is heavily left-leaning. It essentially suffers from the same bias problem that wikipedia, for instance, suffers. Ultimately, this obviously has nothing to do with the software itself, but rather with that information they fed to it and the political bias of researches and – ESPECIALLY - investors themselves, which are the ones who ultimately choose how the model gets fine-tuned.
All in all, technology evolves an I'm sure this technology one day will become accessible and cheap enough for it to run on consumer hardware, which will allow people to create models which aren't as heavyly biased, politically speaking, as ChatGPT is.

- ksenzee 4y agoMost mainstream American media, including those two papers, is very slightly left of center, possibly due to geography and who their paying audience is. The right has taken this small slant and turned it into a major grievance.

- dboreham 4y ago"mainstream" is "left leaning"?
- foverzar 4y agoI wouldn't be surprised it being biased towards the left in general non-specific quasi-political queries, given that left-leaning people seem to generate more written rhetorics on the vast plains of internet. But I don't suppose the examples in the first link have much to do with this: these are just opinionated guard-rails hastily drafted by PR people.
