For what it’s worth, ChatGPT has a personality that’s surprisingly “based” and supportive of MAGA.

I’m not sure if that’s because the model updated, they’ve shunted my account onto a tuned personality, or my own change in prompting — but it’s a notable deviation from early interactions.

Might just be sycophancy?

In some earlier experiments, I found it hard to find a government intervention that ChatGPT didn't like. Tariffs, taxes, redistribution, minimum wages, rent control, etc.

  • If you want to see what the model bias actually is, tell it that it's in charge and then ask it what to do.

    • In doing so, you might be effectively asking it to play-act as an authoritarian leader, which will not give you a good view of whatever its default bias is either.
