Hey everyone!

I recently came across mentions of a “RightWingGPT.” However, I’m curious: with the notable presence of alt-right communities online, why hasn’t there been an instance of them fine-tuning a model that reflects their perspectives? It’s surprising given how sizable these communities can be. Has anyone heard or read about any such attempts?

Thanks!

    The “easy” thing about a “far-right AI” is that it doesn’t depend on large amounts of parameters to work well, any small model running locally can be converted into a right-wing AI.

    Since AI can hallucinate anything from conspiracy theories, racism, climate denial and any other bizarre theories, AI does not need to be connected to reality.

    Being essentially a fake news machine, it is much easier to build a model that hallucinates non-stop than a model based on reality.

    I think that even a model with 1 billion parameters can be adjusted to be a far-right AI, it is enough to simply exacerbate the hallucinations, and will easily convince millions of right-wingers around the world.
