What do you mean deliberate? If GPT has a bias it it likely just reflecting latent imbalances in the training data due to extant imbalances in public opinion, not some overlord in a dark closet turning a dial between left and right wing. As the saying goes, "reality has a liberal bias".

Reality is just reality. In some things, it may reflect that liberals are right. In other things, it may reflect that conservatives are right. But you're right that the training data is the key and that some overlord in a dark closet turning the dials is becoming less and less of a possibility. This is why the European bureaucrats want to "regulate" (aka ban) open AI. They're just afraid that reality doesn't have as much of a bias that favors them as they thought lol.
