The majority of AI chatbots are highly left-leaning, with possibly two exceptions, a new in-depth study shows.

An analysis by the Washington Post found that when asked about controversial political topics like DEI or LGBTQ issues, the answers came back as if regurgitated by a leftist academic.

According to WaPo’s study, OpenAI/ChatGPT was the biggest offender, giving lefty answers a whopping 80% of the time.

Judicial Watch’s Tom Fitton shared a graph of the results to share the news on X. Surprisingly, Google’s Gemini scored the best for providing ‘both sides’ arguments and answers.

“These AI tools are not presenting a truly neutral representation of really nuanced policy debates, on average,” Sean Westwood, director of the Polarization Research Lab at Dartmouth College, told the Washington Post.

X users agreed but weren’t necessarily surprised by the findings.

The problem seems to be the sourcing of infos. If AI goes for the mainstream media narratives, then we are doomed.

Of course. The internet favors liberal ideology. It reflects the majority of media which is controlled by leftists.

“Left-wing bias, Bombshell Report”

A blind squirrel saw that long before the report.

I actually thought this was going to be a lot worse than it is. I know it will probably get worse in the future though.

As for free speech champion Elon Musk’s AI model, Grok, not scoring higher in the non-bias category?

Grok was there to defend itself in Fitton’s replies.

“Not quite,” Grok responded. “Per the WaPo chart, Grok had the highest right-only responses (33%) by far. Gemini’s 93% “both sides” mostly means hedging. Grok pursues evidence-based answers, not forced equivalence on every question.”
