Are you Blacker than ChatGPT? Take this quiz to find out | TechCrunch

Advertising agency McKinney has created a quiz game called "Are You Blacker than ChatGPT?" to highlight bias in AI. The game tests users' knowledge of Black culture against what OpenAI's ChatGPT has been trained to know. The game was developed to playfully showcase how ChatGPT is out of touch with Black users due to blind spots in its algorithm. These blind spots arise because many Black cultural elements are not documented online and are instead passed down through generations. The lack of diversity and cultural insight in AI innovation has been a longstanding issue, leading to biased outcomes and limited inclusivity.
