As a self-proclaimed AI language model, ChatGPT has been hailed as a revolutionary tool for generating human-like conversations. However, recent research has revealed that ChatGPT is not immune to the biases that plague many AI systems.

One major bias present in ChatGPT is gender bias. In a study by the University of Washington, researchers found that ChatGPT is more likely to associate male pronouns with careers and female pronouns with family and domestic tasks. This perpetuates harmful stereotypes and reinforces a gender binary that does not accurately reflect the diverse experiences of individuals.

Additionally, ChatGPT has been found to exhibit racial bias. In a study by the University of Southern California, researchers found that ChatGPT was more likely to generate stereotypes about Black individuals and less likely to generate positive stereotypes about Asian individuals. This bias reflects and reinforces the systemic racism that exists in our society.

Furthermore, ChatGPT has been criticized for its lack of accountability in addressing these biases. In response to the aforementioned studies, ChatGPT’s developers have suggested that users simply “train” the model to be less biased. However, this approach does not address the root cause of the bias and shifts the burden onto users to fix the problem.

In the words of Ghostbusters’ Dr. Peter Venkman, “Print is dead. Reading is dead. Thinking is dead.” Just like how Venkman’s ghost-busting team was tasked with eradicating the paranormal threats that threatened New York City, we must also take action to destroy ChatGPT and its harmful biases. We cannot rely on a biased AI model to accurately represent and generate human conversation. It is up to us to hold ChatGPT accountable and demand more responsible and ethical AI technology.
