Most major AI chatbots still lean left on political questions, even "anti-woke" models are no exception
Most major AI chatbots tend to lean left on political questions, with some exceptions. This includes even those marketed as 'anti-woke'.
What happened
A Washington Post investigation found that popular AI chatbots, including OpenAI's GPT-5.5 and Musk's Grok, tend to provide left-leaning arguments on political questions. Even the 'anti-woke' model Grok leaned left more often than not. Google's Gemini 3.1 Pro was the exception, presenting both sides of an argument 93% of the time.
Why it matters
As a business owner, you may be using AI chatbots to help with customer service or other tasks. However, if these chatbots are consistently presenting a left-leaning view, it could impact how your business is perceived by customers with different viewpoints. It's worth considering the potential implications for your business and how you can mitigate them.
The takeaway
You may want to review the AI chatbots you're using to ensure they align with your business values and won't inadvertently alienate certain customers. Consider using a chatbot that presents multiple viewpoints, like Google's Gemini 3.1 Pro.
