Political Compass

Research on the political compass, particularly as applied to large language models (LLMs), aims to identify and quantify political biases embedded within these AI systems. Current studies utilize various political questionnaires and tests, including the Political Compass Test, to assess LLMs' responses and analyze their underlying values and opinions, often revealing a left-leaning bias. This research is crucial because the widespread adoption of LLMs in information dissemination and decision-making processes necessitates understanding and mitigating their potential for political influence. The findings highlight the need for developing methods to create more unbiased and transparent AI systems.
