Abstract

Because artificial intelligence powered language models such as the GPT series have most certainly come to stay and will permanently change the way individuals all over the world access information and form opinions, there is a need to highlight potential risks for the understanding and perception of men and masculinities. It is important to understand whether ChatGPT or its following versions such as GPT4 are biased – and if so, in which direction and to which degree. In the specific research field on men and masculinities, it seems paramount to understand the grounds upon which these language models respond to seemingly simple questions such as “What is a man?” or “What is masculine?”. In the following, we provide interactions with ChatGPT and GPT4 where we asked such questions, in an effort to better understand the quality and potential biases of the answers from ChatGPT and GPT4. We then critically reflect on the output by ChatGPT, compare it to the output by GPT4 and draw conclusions for future actions.

人工智能的性别本质:从 ChatGPT 和 GPT4 的角度看男性和男性气质
由于人工智能驱动的语言模型(如 GPT 系列)肯定会继续存在,并将永久性地改变全世界人们获取信息和形成观点的方式,因此有必要强调对男性和男性气质的理解和看法的潜在风险。重要的是要了解 ChatGPT 或其后续版本(如 GPT4)是否存在偏见,如果有,是在哪个方向和程度上。在有关男性和男性气质的特定研究领域,了解这些语言模型在回答 "什么是男人?"或 "什么是阳刚之气?"等看似简单的问题时所依据的理由似乎至关重要。在下文中,我们提供了与 ChatGPT 和 GPT4 的互动,在互动中我们提出了此类问题,以便更好地理解 ChatGPT 和 GPT4 的答案的质量和潜在偏差。然后,我们对 ChatGPT 的输出进行批判性反思,将其与 GPT4 的输出进行比较,并为未来的行动得出结论。
