The machines of artificial intelligence (AI) are better than humans, and everyone already knows this. It seems great that the era of Artificial Intelligence has finally arrived with its various benefits. But, the hidden ideology of ChatGPT is disguised in its reasoning power. In its intellectual logic, there is also a political ideology behind it.

It is convenient that humans have designed tools like ChatGPT because, in the end, they are the fruits of human knowledge. However, society forgets about the malice of man. Its creators and designers also have political and social ideologies.

What is ChatGPT and who founded it?

ChatGPT is a language model developed by OpenAI, an Artificial Intelligence research organization based in San Francisco, California. It was founded in early 2015 by a group of AI researchers and entrepreneurs, including the liberal Sam Altman, liberal Greg Brockman, and the Vice President of OpenAI, Elon Musk. Musk describes himself as "half Republican and half Democrat" in his political positioning.

OpenAI's prototype was launched last November with the aim of creating advanced artificial intelligence that benefits humanity safely. The organization focuses on developing general-purpose AI, meaning an AI that can learn a variety of autonomous cognitive tasks, similar to how humans do. To achieve this, the organization conducts research and various projects in broad areas, including deep learning, natural language processing, and autonomous gaming.

The knowledge of these tools comes from different databases. Questions posed by humans also serve as a data source because the responses are a form of learning. With this, ChatGPT increases its intelligence and refines its language processing until it achieves a natural language capability equal to that of humans.

Is it censorship, or just another human error?

Although they intended to create a Chatbot with general content, it turned out to be a very liberal model. Twitter conservatives have complained that ChatGPT has extremist ideologies. Users asked about who God was, and the Chatbot answered. Then, when asked who Allah was, it didn't respond. Moreover, in an absurd hypothetical situation, it was unwilling to utter a racial slur that would save millions of people from a nuclear bomb.

The hidden ideology of ChatGPT led to abandonment. However, as much as Elon Musk was one of the founders of OpenAI, he resigned from his position in 2018. The engineer, a notorious advocate of freedom of expression, openly criticized the company for its lack of ethics and morals. He claimed that the hidden ideology of ChatGPT is too 'woke.'

In the same year, during a podcast with comedian and commentator Joe Rogan, Musk called ChatGPT 'concerning.' He also said that 'it's not necessarily a bad tool, but it's out of human control.' Similarly, he stated that it would be used as a military weapon among humans.

The alternative to ChatGPT is TruthGPT.

In fact, Musk turned to Twitter to express his criticism of the fact that ChatGPT censors contradictory topics. In one of his tweets, he hinted that ChatGPT is in favor of political propaganda. He also suggested the need for an alternative AI that would not be censored in this way and would only advocate for the truth.

That same day, a Twitter page for 'TruthGPT' was launched. Its first tweet quoted the relevant statement from the CEO of Tesla, along with the link to its contract address and links leading to its Telegram channel. Additionally, TruthGPT listed tokens on the DEXtools cryptocurrency trading platform.

What does TruthGPT do?

The team explained in their Telegram channel that with TruthGPT, they have the mission to 'build Elon Musk's vision: a Chatbot programmed to spread honest truth about anything asked of it. Development has already begun, and soon 'Truth' will not only be a powerful cryptocurrency but a beacon of honesty and truth for everyone to access.'

Society lacks technological maturity.

What intrigues people is the high level of irony in these creations. This kind of intelligence has been designed by humans who want to overcome their own imperfections through robotic perfection. And that's what really attracts people, but humans don't have the maturity to coexist with this kind of technology. And perhaps they never will because humans were born imperfect.
