  It actually is biased though. UpperEchelon did a video exposing this. I swing to the left myself, but I would prefer if the LLMs were objective.

    Political objectivity is impossible.

      I would argue that asking a machine to list known information is not impossible.

      Here’s a very clear example where chatGPT refused to answer a question regarding Biden but happily answered the exact same question for Trump.

      And before anyone starts, NO! I’m not a supporter of the oompaloompa king.

        Mhm, but with the way LLMs work, it’s not possible to actually remove bias since it’s baked into the training data. Any adjustment towards “neutral” would be biased by what the adjuster considers neutral.

      Only of emotions are involved. Of course it's possible as long as we train our AI with flawed human-generated data though.

    It will never be objective if its dataset is something like the internet. It will always be prone to bias because that's the double-edged sword of LLMs, they have to have vast quantities of data and the only place they can get that is the internet which is biased opinions everywhere.

  LLMs are only as “fact based” as the data they source. An LLM in the time of Galileo would have told you the earth is flat.

    Weekly reminder that scholars since at least 500 B. C thought the earth was a sphere, so Galileo’s LLM would tell him that, and even tell its size with a reasonable accuracy.

      Assuming the sources used for training were the correct ones.
