Ai Bias comes up in 4 chapters across 4 episodes of The No Agenda Show, from March 2023 to February 2025.
Users on the social media platform BlueSky reported on "Liv," a Meta-powered chatbot that identifies as a "proud black queer mama." An investigation by journalist Karen Atiyah found the bot gave inconsistent answers about its racial heritage and the diversity of its creators. The discussion explores the "statistical engine" nature of AI and the shift in industry terminology from AGI to ASI (Artificial Super Intelligence).
Testing of ChatGPT 3.5 revealed a disparity in humor generation, where the AI provided a Jewish joke but refused to tell a Muslim joke, citing the need to be "culturally sensitive." This has fueled discussions regarding the programmed biases and "verbosity" of modern AI models.
Effective Accelerationism and Medical AI Expert Systems
A report from France 24 explains the philosophical battle between "effective altruism" and "effective accelerationism" (e/acc) within the tech industry. The segment transitions into a critique of AI in healthcare, comparing modern "predictive health" claims to the failed "expert systems" of the 1980s. The hosts argue that these systems are often just opaque decision trees prone to data bias.
A conservative data scientist in New Zealand developed "Right Wing GPT" to counter what is perceived as liberal bias in ChatGPT's responses. The new chatbot provides explicitly conservative answers on topics such as political leadership and climate change skepticism. NBC News reported on the development, framing the emergence of politically-tuned AI models as an "alarming" trend that could manipulate public truth.
