> It's not fair to judge AI by asking it for objective answers in questions requiring value judgement... especially when it's been "aligned" to within an inch of its simulated life to avoid bias.

They aren’t aligned to avoid bias (which is an incoherent concept, avoiding bias is like not having priors), they are aligned to incorporate the preferred bias of the entity doing it the alignment work.

(That preferred bias may be for a studious neutrality on controversial viewpoints in the surrounding society as perceived by the aligner, but that’s still a bias, not the absence of bias.)
