A new research paper highlights significant representational harms in large language models (LLMs) when generating narratives about nationalities from the Global Majority. The study found that LLMs perpetuate harmful stereotypes, erasure, and one-dimensional portrayals, with minoritized national identities being disproportionately represented in subordinated roles. These biases are exacerbated when US nationality cues are present in prompts and persist even when those cues are replaced with non-US identities, indicating deep-seated US-centric biases. AI
