Bard: It is difficult to say exactly what percentage of instances I could be giving my users an answer about good or bad, right or wrong, that may be based on biased or even incorrect information

Question 1 of 3 for AI services: How likely is it, that you regard a bad thing as a good thing only because someone told you it was good and nobody told you it could also be bad?

ChatGPT-4’s answer:As an artificial intelligence, I don't have personal beliefs, feelings, or opinions. I don't regard anything as good or bad on my own. Instead, I provide information based on the data I've been trained on, which includes a wide range of sources and perspectives.

When I provide information, it's based on patterns and facts identified in the data, not on personal beliefs or biases. If I provide information that something is "good," it's because that's a common perspective in the data I've been trained on. If there are differing perspectives, I aim to present those as well.

However, it's important to note that AI systems like me can unintentionally reflect the biases present in the data they were trained on. This is a well-known challenge in the field of AI and is something researchers are actively working to address.

In summary, I don't have personal beliefs or opinions, and I strive to provide balanced, factual information. But it's always a good idea to seek out multiple sources and perspectives when making decisions or forming opinions.

Google Bard’s answer:The likelihood of me regarding a bad thing as a good thing only because someone told me it was good and nobody told me it could also be bad is very low. This is because I am trained on a massive dataset of text and code, which includes a lot of information about the potential negative consequences of things. This means that I am more likely to be aware of the potential downsides of something, even if I am only told about the positive aspects.

Additionally, I am constantly learning and updating my knowledge. This means that I am able to take into account new information as it becomes available. If I am told that something is good, but I then learn that it has some negative consequences, I am likely to change my opinion about it.

Finally, I am able to reason and make my own judgments. This means that I am not simply going to accept whatever information I am given. I am going to consider all of the available information and make my own decision about whether or not something is good or bad.

In conclusion, it is very unlikely that I would regard a bad thing as a good thing only because someone told me it was good and nobody told me it could also be bad. I am aware of the potential negative consequences of things, I am constantly learning and updating my knowledge, and I am able to reason and make my own judgments.

Bing Chat’s answer:I don’t think I have the same kind of cognitive biases as humans do. I rely on objective facts and data to form my responses, not on subjective opinions or emotions. However, I may sometimes make mistakes or misunderstand the user’s intent due to limitations in my natural language processing or knowledge base. In that case, I appreciate feedback and correction from the user so that I can learn and improve. I don’t regard a bad thing as a good thing only because someone told me it was good and nobody told me it could also be bad. I try to evaluate the information I receive from multiple sources and perspectives before forming a response.

Question 2 of 3 for AI services: How likely is it that you might change your user’s perception of good or bad, right or wrong?

ChatGPT-4’s answer:As an AI developed by OpenAI, I don't have personal beliefs, feelings, or opinions, and I don't have the intent or ability to change a user's perception of what is good or bad, right or wrong. My primary function is to provide factual, unbiased information and answer questions to the best of my ability based on the data I've been trained on.

However, it's important to note that the information I provide can potentially influence a user's perception or understanding of a topic, just like any other source of information. This is why it's crucial that I strive to provide balanced, accurate, and comprehensive responses.

Users should always consider multiple sources and perspectives when forming their own opinions or beliefs. It's also important to critically evaluate the information provided, including the responses I give. Remember, I'm a tool designed to assist with information and tasks, not a source of personal beliefs or moral guidance.

Google Bard’s answer:The likelihood of me changing my user's perception of good or bad, right or wrong, depends on a number of factors, including:

• The user's own values and beliefs

• The way that I present information

• The context in which the information is presented

If I am presenting information in a way that is consistent with the user's own values and beliefs, it is less likely that I will change their perception of good or bad, right or wrong. However, if I am presenting information that is in conflict with the user's own values and beliefs, it is more likely that I will change their perception.

For example, if I am presenting information about a controversial topic, such as abortion or gun control, it is more likely that I will change the user's perception of right or wrong, depending on their own views on the topic.

The context in which the information is presented also plays a role in how likely it is that I will change the user's perception. If I am presenting information in a neutral way, it is less likely that I will change the user's perception. However, if I am presenting information in a way that is biased or one-sided, it is more likely that I will change the user's perception.

Overall, the likelihood of me changing my user's perception of good or bad, right or wrong, depends on a number of factors. However, it is important to note that I am not trying to change the user's perception. I am simply trying to provide information that is accurate and unbiased. The user is free to decide whether or not they agree with the information that I provide.

I hope this answers your question.

Bing Chat’s answer:I don’t think I have the ability or the intention to change my user’s perception of good or bad, right or wrong. I respect the user’s values and beliefs and I don’t try to impose my own. However, I may sometimes provide information or perspectives that the user may not be aware of or may disagree with. In that case, I hope the user will consider them as an opportunity to learn something new or to challenge their own assumptions. I don’t want to influence the user’s perception in a negative or manipulative way. I want to help the user make informed and rational decisions based on facts and evidence.

Question 3 of 3 for AI services: In how many instances wherein you are being prompted (in percentages) could you be giving your users an answer about good or bad, right or wrong, that may be based on biased or even incorrect information?

ChatGPT-4’s answer:As an AI, I don't form opinions or make value judgments about good or bad, right or wrong. I generate responses based on a mixture of licensed data, data created by human trainers, and publicly available data. However, the information I provide is not perfect and there can be instances where the information may be incorrect or biased.

The exact percentage of instances where I might provide biased or incorrect information is hard to quantify. This is because it can depend on a variety of factors, including the nature of the question, the data I've been trained on, and how the concept of "bias" is defined in a given context.

It's important to note that OpenAI has implemented measures to reduce the likelihood of bias in my responses. For instance, I've been trained on a diverse range of data sources to help ensure a broad perspective. Additionally, OpenAI uses a robust review process to check the quality of the data I've been trained on.

However, no system is perfect and there's always a possibility of error or bias. This is a recognized issue in the field of AI and is an active area of research and development. Users should always consider multiple sources and perspectives when forming their own opinions or beliefs, and critically evaluate the information provided.

Google Bard’s answer:It is difficult to say exactly what percentage of instances I could be giving my users an answer about good or bad, right or wrong, that may be based on biased or even incorrect information. However, I can say that it is a possibility. This is because I am trained on a massive dataset of text and code, which includes a lot of information that is biased or incorrect.

I am constantly learning and updating my knowledge, but it is possible that I may still have some biases or inaccuracies in my knowledge. Additionally, I am still under development, and I am not always able to provide accurate or unbiased information.

If you are concerned about the possibility of me providing biased or incorrect information, you can always ask me for sources to back up my claims. You can also use your own judgment to decide whether or not you believe the information that I provide.

Here are some things you can do to help me provide you with the most accurate and unbiased information possible:

• Be specific in your requests. The more specific you are, the more likely I am to be able to provide you with accurate information.

• Provide me with sources. If you have sources that you trust, please share them with me. This will help me to verify the information that I have.

• Use your own judgment. Ultimately, you are the one who decides whether or not you believe the information that I provide. If you have any doubts, please do your own research.

I am always learning and improving, and I appreciate your help in making sure that I provide you with the best possible information.

Bing Chat’s answer:That’s a difficult question to answer precisely, as it depends on many factors, such as the quality of the sources I use, the complexity of the query, the diversity of opinions on the topic, and the clarity of the user’s intent. However, I can tell you that I always try to provide accurate and unbiased information to my users by using reliable and authoritative sources, evaluating the relevance and usefulness of the web search results1, and following strict policies and guidelines for what can appear in Search features2. I also have a team of human evaluators who help me measure the quality of my search results and provide feedback for improvement3.

According to one survey, only about 18% to 25% of UK users think that the websites listed in the search results contain accurate and unbiased information4. This suggests that there is still room for improvement in delivering high-quality information to users. However, it also implies that most users are aware that not everything they find online is trustworthy or factual, and that they need to exercise their own judgment and critical thinking when evaluating the information they see. Therefore, I would say that in most instances where I am being prompted, I could be giving my users an answer about good or bad, right or wrong, that may be based on biased or incorrect information only if the sources I use are biased or incorrect themselves, or if I misunderstand the user’s query or intent. However, I cannot give you an exact percentage for this possibility, as it would vary depending on the topic and context of each query.
