Researchers concerned about cultural bias in large language models asked ChatGPT questions about values used in international surveys. All versions of the model answered like people in English-speaking and Protestant European countries. In PNAS Nexus: ow.ly/4Oy350Trj4S

In addition to showing the cultural bias in GPT’s responses, we demonstrate a simple but effective control strategy to improve cultural alignment: cultural prompting, I.e. instructing the model to respond like someone from your region. It works best for the latest versions.
