Thanks. Concise and easily understandable. I am concerned about the cultural bias (leftist, progressive) influence of Wikipedia. For anyone who has used it in recent years its blatantly leftist. Out of curiosity I asked ChatGPT some questions related to diversity, equity & inclusion. At first, It returned the expected dogma. As I prompted it using multiple analogies regarding preference it became more objective in its definition of racism & sexism.

Out of an abundance of caution, OpenAI has set up pretty rigorous guidelines around potentially racist or sexist content. Though I've personally noticed ChatGPT has gotten better over time about navigating sensitive topics while still giving an answer. I think that's far less frustrating than being told "As a language model, I can't discuss that."

Good point. When it gave me the standard dogma such as ‘only white people can be racist’, it added a qualifier that opinions can vary depending on the person. I’m paraphrasing of course.

Forgot to mention that Chat GPT4 is much better.
