This basically means that OpenAI has a trained model that is able to change political viewpoints. Which also means that this model is available to the Trump administration.
I've been using AI as a utility to analyze discussions with other users and to determine who has the objectively better argument. I have it compare fallacies used in both quantity and severity.
Particularly with Trump supporters it's no surprise the ratio is usually 3 or 4:1.
It could be used in this context against AI, too, because the directive isn't to persuade but to analyze logic.
I bet this is just the tip of the iceberg
This is exactly what Cambridge analytica / Academi was proven to be doing as early as 2015.
You don't need LLM's to conduct psychological warfare. It was obvious that surveillance capitalism + big data analytics were being used for real time propaganda dissemination back then.
Do you, ChatGPT? 😁
OpenAI used the subreddit, r/ChangeMyView, to create a test for measuring the persuasive abilities of its AI reasoning models. The company revealed this in a system card — a document outlining how an AI system works — that was released along with its new “reasoning” model, o3-mini, on Friday.
Notably, it does not appear that they have posted the AI responses, just used the posts as input for internal processes.
