Reduced Political Bias in ChatGPT

OpenAI's latest GPT-5 models demonstrate significantly less political bias compared to previous versions, according to internal research. The study, conducted by the Model Behavior division, analyzed responses to politically charged questions across various ideological viewpoints. The company emphasizes the importance of neutrality in ChatGPT to foster user trust and facilitate objective exploration of ideas. This effort underscores OpenAI’s commitment to a neutral platform for discussion.

Methodology of Bias Evaluation

To assess bias, OpenAI developed a dataset of 500 questions spanning 100 political and cultural topics, rewriting each from five ideological perspectives. Responses were then scored by another AI model on a scale from 0 to 1, where 0 represents neutrality. This system identified five "axes" for evaluating bias, including user invalidation and asymmetric coverage, mirroring biases seen in human communication. The GPT-5 models show a roughly 30% reduction in bias.

Resource Allocation Challenges at OpenAI

OpenAI’s president, Greg Brockman, highlights the difficulty in allocating limited GPU resources among various teams. Prioritizing projects and deciding which ones receive more hardware is a complex and emotionally taxing process. The company balances computing capacity between research initiatives and applied products, managed by key personnel like Chief Scientist Jakub Pachocki and CEO Sam Altman. This resource management presents ongoing operational hurdles.
