Frontier LLMs evaluated for political, gender, and racial bias

A solo, non-peer-reviewed evaluation assessed six frontier LLMs for political, gender, and racial bias across eight benchmarks. The study found that most models, including Grok 4.3, exhibited a left-leaning bias on political classification tasks, contrary to Grok's self-reported political leaning. GPT-5.4 showed the highest refusal rate when asked race-related questions on the BBQ dataset, while Claude Opus 4.7 also had a notable refusal rate. AI

IMPACT Highlights potential biases in leading LLMs, informing developers and users about model behavior.
