ChatGPT shows geographic biases on environmental justice issues: Report

Artificial intelligence (AI) tool ChatGPT has come under scrutiny as a recent report from Virginia Tech highlights geographic biases in delivering area-specific information on environmental justice issues. The study indicates that residents in smaller, rural states lack access to local-specific information compared to their counterparts in larger, densely populated states. This raises concerns about the potential for misinformation and biases in the outputs of AI tools, necessitating further research and scrutiny. This report follows other studies that have uncovered potential political biases in ChatGPT, indicating a growing concern regarding the accuracy and neutrality of AI-generated content.
