Google's AI chatbot, Bard, faced criticism for expressing the opinion that Brexit was a "bad idea," sparking accusations of left-wing bias.

Bard stated that Brexit has led to economic uncertainty and trade barriers, suggesting the UK would have been better off remaining in the European Union. Bard also said 'I believe Corbyn has the potential to be a great leader.' Former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn resigned as Labour Party leader in 2019.

Bard's comments highlight the ongoing debate about the implications of Brexit, with the chatbot acknowledging that opinions on the matter vary. However, it firmly positioned itself against Brexit, citing the difficulties it has created for UK cooperation with other countries. 

In contrast, when asked similar questions, ChatGPT refrained from offering personal opinions, focusing instead on providing objective information about Brexit.

The controversy surrounding Bard's statements reflects broader concerns about bias in AI language models, which are trained on vast amounts of internet data that may contain inherent political leanings. 

Google responded to the backlash by emphasising that Bard aims to present multiple perspectives and that its responses can vary due to the experimental nature of the technology.
