Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s Microsoft-Powered Chatbot Is Back Online
The RFK Jr. campaign's chatbot had previously affirmed Kennedy's promotion of conspiracy theories, and appeared to circumvent OpenAI's ban on political use.
Those concerns are part of the reason OpenAI said in January that it would ban people from using its technology to create chatbots that mimic political candidates or provide false information related to voting. When asked which large language model powers the Kennedy campaign’s bot, LiveChatAI cofounder Emre Elbeyoglu said in an emailed statement on Thursday that the platform “utilizes a variety of technologies like Llama and Mistral” in addition to GPT-3.5 and GPT-4. Earlier this year, the company blocked the developer of Dean.bot, a chatbot built on OpenAI’s models that mimicked Democratic presidential candidate Dean Phillips and delivered answers to voter questions.
