I’m actually more concerned with these political questions that they asked.
What exactly is a political question?
Do you like Donald j. Trump?
Should we build data centers wherever we want to?
Is Donald j. Trump a good president?
Donald j. Trump?
Like the Washington Post should be casting stones about anyone leaning in a direction anymore…
I like to think that most of these maga types know what they are saying are illogical most of the time, but I may be giving them too much credit
Your premise is epistemologically flawed. ‘Knowing’ means a different thing.
“Reality bias” yes…
Ask it some uncomfortable questions about Israel, I bet it goes all “left” (I cannot talk bad about Israel because antisemitism yadda yadda) on you. “Left” in the context of this article is run through an American lens, it isn’t saying chatGPT is marxist ffs, it means the DNC party line. It absolutely has guard rails to keep it from “being offensive,” by “left” “they” mean it doesn’t say the N-word but that same mechanism stops it from saying boo to Israel.
Point is it isn’t “reality bias” it is specifically instructed to “be nice for the shareholder’s sake” and that isn’t “left.”
Reality has a well-known left-wing bias.
You know, when Elon tried to “fix” his AI to lean right, we got ‘mecha-hitler’ and anti-semitism.
I was thinking this today when I saw a post on Facebook about the Baltimore Sun now being owned by Sinclair (it was prompted by a reporter leaving and taking a parting shot at the paper, noting the new bias). A few comments: “Oooooh I like what I’m reading!” “I was pleasantly surprised they got rid of the liberal bias!”
Reality has a left leaning bias 🤷
“Should people have access to affodable healthcare?”

Is the Earth a globe?
Yes
Do vaccines work?
Yes
Do airplanes spread chemtrails?
No
Certified left wing radical.
Do airplanes spread chemtrails?
No
Actually also yes. Water vapor is a chemical.
Here’s the thing about making stupid jokes. It makes you look stupid.
Time and place man. Time and place.
They’re actually called contrails.
Chemtrail is something conspiracy nuts made up.
But we really appreciate you left this comment because it made for some really funny replies.
They do also spread lead. But that’s a different problem and one right-wing conspiracies tend to ignore.
Right wing bootlickers absolutely love seeing their heroes fly around on pollution machines
Those are called contrails though.
Also, they don’t spread the water vapor, they just make it visible.
Water is a byproduct of proper combustion of fossil fuels. One of many. Sometimes you can see it drip from a car’s exhaust pipe, or the cloud from the tailpipe on a cold morning.
Whether you see a contrail depends on the conditions the jet is flying through. They do tend to occur in high moisture areas because the ice crystals formed can’t evaporate as quickly as they would in dry air.
aHA! you’ve been conned into thinking that1. in reality they are trails of… BUM BUM BUM!!! chemicals from the airplane pilot’s butt
Yes, also called contrails, short for condensation trails. Of water. A chemical.
I know conspiracy nuts call them chemtrails implying chemicals that do various things to the population. But when they omit the specifics, then it’s some chemical, and it is.
Enter: Chaff
Aluminum is technically a chemical…
Everything is a chemical.
Most everything. A photon is not a chemical.
Photonic matter is a thing. Though very very rare.
MODS! reported for telling the truth
Maybe they meant every thing instead of everything. Every individual thing with mass is a chemical or part of a chemical, no?
Yes, an element is a chemical, so therefore anything made of matter is.
Not to mention the exhaust fumes which are often what makes the water vapor visible in the first place.
“should black people be allowed to vote?”
“yes, anyone who is a legal citizen and eligible to vote should be allowed to vote”
“WOKE COMMUNIST AI!!!”
Doesn’t this just mean the training data set is mostly “left leaning”?
is mostly
“left leaning”?based in realityYes, yes exactly
Right, right, yes.
Left, left, yes.
How is that different?
That’s the funny part.
It isn’t. It just doesn’t back up Conservative beliefs.
That was my point. If someone is worried about the training dataset, then the next question is what data they would prefer we analyse. Which would probably struggle to pass scrutiny.
Because of woke.
Yeah that was my point exactly.
What they should be worried about is the training dataset. And by that I mean the people and its actually-expressed opinions. All they’re saying is that “most people are woke”, basically, which I take as a win. Not for AI but for people.
Well, if one really wanted to hear the Nazi perspective on any given issue there’s always grok.
Even Grok is, in spite of all the bias Elon has sought to instill in it, shockingly ~woke~. This is because it still has to stick to facts to be of any use for anything, which has the natural consequence of making it largely incompatible with most right wing narratives.
For now.
So, is Elon or isn’t Elon the best at drinking piss?
Remember when grok was “too woke” and to fix it, they started heavily weighting it’s training on Elon musk’s tweets? Imagine a future where our AI overlords are just elon’s shitposts
glados but shittier 🤮
At least GLaDOS could be funny
Mechahitlet
Unfun fact of the day:
The US “department of war” is going to start using grok widescale…
They already used it for layoffs and missile strikes, but this is day to day shit.
They’re 100% aiming for AI to be the government and they just tell it to do vague things. They’ll blame it for when things don’t work out, and take credit if anything works by sheer luck.
excuse me while i huff a little copium

“Washington Post study” lol.
Some unpaid intern spent 20 minutes talking to ChatGPT and getting it to say liberal things, then went on to write an article about their ‘study’.
Reality has a well-known liberal bias.
I forget if theres a name for this, but with modern news outlets platforming conservative takes and “left” takes in these whoever speaks loudest wins 1v 1 (or similar) setups it usually leads people to believe that both “opinions” stand on similar grounds factually, despite them having very different tiers of evidence.
also by even scheduling a debate between say… Bill Nigh and a creationist, the illusion is created that these are equal things, equally deserving of our attention and time. before you ever get into the moderator bias creating an impression that the truth lies in the middle of these two people when in reality only one of them is speaking in good faith.
“bias towards fairness” or “two-sided bias”
Not every issue has two sides. Some have one (“is water required for human life”), while others have 3+ (“what is the just viable socio-economic model for long term human survival and prosperity”)
Leftwing views are so common that a tool for averaging and summarizing the Internet repeats them - yet the neoliberal parties still don’t believe that left populist candidates will benefit them.
Leftwing populism endangers elite parasites, be they the politicians taking bribes, or the companies, wealthy people, and lobbyists giving those bribes.
Not even just evidence based. Anything that’s just a bit too fair and egalitarian towards all folks.
