This is right on time. I read a discussion on how "Chinese models" are censored on topics like Tiannamen square. But the real issue is that we (average person) are only able to spot such things from a distance (either geographical or temporal.)

This means that "our" models may already have blindspots, reality twists, and the like. Only that we are not (on average) spotting it (yet)

Personalization of answers and bubble reinforcement will come. The algorithms have been increasing their capacity to influence us. Not only for their sheer power solving benchmarks but by the legitimacy that's being accumulated in the process.

However,

    You saw it live. Grok did not give the information Musk wanted, so he had it twisted and manipulated to spread his favorite lies.

    I like to go ask them questions I know the will lie about. It helps to reenforce that they are untrustworthy.

    Anything about trump always come out as 1984 new speak.

    I felt the Impuls to answer to you: „just don’t converse politics with them.“

    Then I realized the issue goes deeper and beyond politics and is mostly very subtle to an oblivious user. Reality is narrated differently from country to country.

    Well, while many of these chatbots have intentional knowledge injections regarding some political topics - they’re also simply suspectible to eating up disinformation from internet too. Most of major LLM chatbots were reported to cite shit like Pravda or RT. So yeah, you either get disinformation that is hardcoded into them or regurgitated from web.
