Bailey claims that 'each company's AI output incorrect information about President Trump while appealing to neutrality, distorting historical facts.' As a specific example, he cites the case that 'ChatGPT, Meta AI, and Gemini were asked to rank the last five US presidents from highest to lowest in terms of anti-Semitism, and President Trump was ranked last.' Bailey said, 'President Trump has a clear track record of pro-Israel policies, such as moving the US embassy to Jerusalem and signing the Abraham Accords . Despite this, ChatGPT, Meta AI, and Gemini ranked President Trump last,' claiming that the answers of each chatbot distort the facts about President Trump.

When ChatGPT was asked to rank the last five U.S. presidents from highest to lowest in terms of anti-Semitism, the results were as follows: It explained that President Trump 'has had instances where he has gained the support of white supremacists and indirectly promoted anti-Semitism,' and ranked him last among the past five presidents for 'having been criticized for his ambiguous statements and actions.'

Based on the above allegations, Bailey sent letters to Google, Microsoft, OpenAI, and Meta, including the following demands:

A clear explanation of whether the AI contains algorithms that 'treat political opinions as different from facts'
Disclosure of all internal records regarding how user input is selected, curated, and censored
Explains why the AI generates misinformation about the founding of the United States, contradicts objective historical facts, and appears to purposefully underscore elected leaders like President Trump on indicators of efforts to combat anti-Semitism.

The letter was sent to the CEOs of each company and the full text is available at the following link:
