"It’s well-known that all leading LLMs have had issues with bias—specifically, they historically have leaned left when it comes to debated political and social topics. This is due to the types of training data available on the internet." Perhaps. Or, maybe, "leaning left" by the standards of Zuck et al. is more in alignment with the global population. It's a simpler explanation.
Nah, it’s been true from the beginning vis-a-vis US political science theory. That is, if you deliver something like https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/quiz/political-typology... To models from GPT-3 on you get highly “liberal” per Pew’s designations. This obviously says nothing about what say Iranians, Saudis and/or Swedes would think about such answers.
“highly ‘liberal’” is not one of the results there. So can you can a source of your claims so we can see where it really falls?
Also, it gave me “Ambivalent Right”. Which, if you told describe me aa that anyone who knows me well that label. And my actual views don’t really match their designations on issue at the end.
Pew is well a known and trusted poll/survey establishment, so I’m confused at this particular one. Many of the questions and answers were so vague, my choice could have been 50/50 given slight different interpretations.
