Yep. Reality itself is biased because truth and science are subjective and political now apparently
Comment on Fresh evidence of ChatGPT’s political bias: study

Using the Political Compass is a bit of a strange way to conduct research. I do think it is important to identify biases of course, but at some point you have to look at the bigger picture and realise why the bias exists.
In order to swing ChatGPT more to the right (if you want to balance it at neutral in the end), you’d have to inject it with more racism, anti-science conspiracy and American Christian views - none of which are particularly pleasant.
Do we want a LLM that limits facts about COVID-19 so that those who view it as a conspiracy feel validated?
Do we want it to respond that homosexual people don’t exist? Or even to say “I can’t give a response to this that remains politically neutral”?
Or if someone asks how old the earth is, do we want it to reply with “about 3000 years old”?
Or to contest climate change?
Do we want to sacrifice accuracy in favour of neutrality just because one party has a denial stance on these topics?

Yeah I mean, at one time this might have meant the difference between wanting to save money in a bank vs wanting to invest in infrastructure projects, but today it basically means wanting to drown brown kids in a Texas river, arm teachers with guns, engrave law onto a woman’s uterus, shut down education, overthrow the government, bring back racism, sexism, classism, bigotry, homophobia, climate change denialism, anti intellectual, greedy, go back to religious fundamentalism vs not any of those things. It’s become batshit insanity vs people that are just ordinary rational.
So yeah, maybe chat gpt didn’t get enough lessons from mein kampf to be “center”, but come the fuck on, the right is absofuckinglutly awful. Like just the worst human beings imaginable. The fucking figurehead of the right has over 50 felony indictments against him, is that really a fair right vs left? It’s fucking Evil vs normal at this point.
Is everyone in the Republican Party wasn’t a mouth breathing, con-man, shit stirring crook, I might buy the balance argument a little bit better, but there is absolutely rampant corruption, hypocrisy and downright inhumane things proliferating on the right with absolutely no equal on the left.
I’d rather have some dreadlocked, crunchy hippy talking about higher minimum wage than some ignorant blowhard saying global warming isn’t real and let’s arm all the kids to cut down on school shootings. Jesus fucking Christ.
