Are AI chatbots biased?
Yes, AI chatbots are biased in multiple ways, though the nature, degree, and direction of those biases vary by model, topic, and how they are measured. These systems are not neutral oracles; they reflect patterns in their training data, design choices, fine-tuning processes, and the human feedback used to align them.
