AI chatbots favour existing climate policies over new ideas

Original: AI chatbots endorse existing climate-related policies twice as often as new proposals

A new study finds that AI chatbots endorse existing climate-related policies roughly twice as often as they support new or untested policy proposals. Researchers say the pattern suggests chatbot answers may be anchored to well-documented positions, potentially narrowing the range of climate solutions presented to users. The findings raise questions about how much AI systems could shape public debate on climate policy.

Why now: New research highlights a potential bias in widely used AI tools at a time of intense debate over their influence on public opinion.
