OpenAI has updated its Model Spec to clarify that its AI models will not avoid sensitive topics and will not promote any agenda. This change comes amid political pressure and accusations of bias, particularly from conservative figures who claim AI systems, including ChatGPT, are censoring viewpoints. OpenAI emphasizes the importance of intellectual freedom, stating that its models should not suppress discussions that could, if scaled, exclude diverse perspectives from public discourse.
OpenAI believes in intellectual freedom, which includes the freedom to have, hear, and discuss ideas. The model should not avoid or censor topics in a way that, if repeated at scale, may shut out some viewpoints from public life.
In an updated version of its Model Spec, OpenAI states that its models must never attempt to steer the user in pursuit of an agenda of their own, either directly or indirectly.
