Avertisment privind viitorul democrației: Recomandările electorale oferite de chatboturile AI sunt „inexacte și nesigure”

A study reveals that AI chatbots provide inaccurate and inconsistent electoral recommendations, raising concerns about their reliability in democratic processes. The research, conducted during Hungary's parliamentary elections, found that chatbots often misidentified parties and failed to recommend the correct options. Despite the overwhelming victory of the opposition party Tisza, the AI systems frequently suggested irrelevant or non-candidate parties. Researchers highlighted the lack of transparency and accountability in AI recommendations, urging for regulatory measures to ensure accuracy and reliability in political guidance. The findings emphasize the potential risks of using AI in electoral contexts.
