ChatGPT is one of the world’s most powerful artificial intelligence tools but it struggles with cultural nuance. That’s quite annoying for a Black person like John Pasmore, who has worked in the AI space since at least 2008. The current ChatGPT offers answers that are too generalized for specific questions that cater to certain communities, as its training appears Eurocentric and Western in its bias. So Pasmore launched Latimer.AI, a language model to give answers tailored to reflect the experiences of Black and brown people. Read more from TechCrunch. https://flip.it/FJz34w

Okay, not to be difficult, I really want to understand this, but what kind of answers is it giving that are too eurocentric or western?
I ask this because ChatGPT hallucinates / confabulates far too much to be considered biased, unless your prompt is biased. We saw a lot of this a few months ago when people were claiming it was too liberal or too conservative or too religeous, etc.
@TechDesk In other words "Artificial Intelligence - the best we can do doesn't really work for anybody, so we're having to make dozens of different versions which will give certain parts of the population SPECIFICALLY wrong information".
Good to see the bias inherent in ChatGPT and others being acknowledged, just embarrassing at this point that it's all still going on.
