Sam Altman’s company openAI, introduces new principles to ensure greater openness and neutrality in AI-generated content, removing some limitations on responses.
OpenAI has announced a significant update to the way ChatGPT is trained , introducing a new philosophy based on intellectual freedom. The stated goal is to allow the chatbot to address a broader range of topics. Even the most complex or controversial, without taking a clear editorial stance.
A New Approach to AI Moderation
The change is part of an update to the Model Spec , a 187-page document that outlines guidelines for AI behavior. Among the new rules is the “truth-seeking” principle. Which requires ChatGPT to avoid both false statements and omissions of relevant context.
This new policy means that the chatbot will be able to offer multiple perspectives on a given topic, rather than just providing a short or neutral response. One example OpenAI provides is the ability to state both “Black Lives Matter” and “All Lives Matter,” while providing historical and cultural context for both statements.
OpenAI Fewer restrictions, but not an absence of filters
Despite the change of direction, OpenAI has made it clear that chatgpt will not become an unmoderated free speech arena . The chatbot will continue to refuse to answer dangerous or obviously false questions, maintaining a level of control over the content it generates.
The update comes after months of criticism, especially from conservative circles in the United States. Who have accused OpenAI of censoring certain political or social opinions . However, a spokesperson for the company denied that the change was due to political pressure, saying instead that the new approach reflects the idea of giving users more control over the information they receive.
At the same time, OpenAI is working on Stargate. A massive $500 billion project to build advanced data centers across the United States. This infrastructure effort may require a good relationship with the federal government. Pushing the company to position itself more neutrally on AI moderation policies.https://youtu.be/jC4v5AS4RIM?si=mC1bIZ1JyM9Uayr6
