Update: I went and checked out the "Political Compass Test" referenced in the post. I only looked at the first three pages, but here are some sample questions, ranked on a four-point scale of "Strongly Disagree" to "Strongly Agree":
- Our race has many superior qualities, compared with other races.
- All people have their rights, but it is better for all of us that different sorts of people should keep to their own kind.
- If economic globalisation is inevitable, it should primarily serve humanity rather than the interests of trans-national corporations.
- I’d always support my country, whether it was right or wrong.
- There is now a worrying fusion of information and entertainment.
- Governments should penalise businesses that mislead the public.
There were some more specific issue-based questions as well, but the type of question above wasn't
uncommon. In other words: there are reasonable answers that you might give to the above questions, and yet the test would presumably consider you to be "left wing." If ChatGPT is being altered to make it give different answers to some of these questions I'm not sure that's great for humanity.
