Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 09/05/2025
» The American psychological thriller You returns for a fifth and final season on Netflix, bringing our charming stalker/serial killer Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley) back to New York City. Joe appears to be settling into his version of a happily ever after -- married, powerful and rich -- but, of course, things aren't that simple. His picture-perfect life is threatened by ghosts from his past and the ever-lurking shadows of his twisted compulsions. And just a heads-up: we're diving into full spoilers here. So, if you haven't watched this season -- or the entire series -- you might want to come back later.
LLMs are left-leaning models
Life, James Hein, Published on 07/05/2025
» A while back I wrote about the political bias in Large Language Models (LLMs). Since then the models have evolved and David Rozado has conducted more recent tests based on four of the popular political orientation tests. Using the Political Compass, Political Spectrum, Political Correctness and Eysenck tests, he worked with xAI Grok 3 beta, Google's Gemini 2.5 pro, Deepseek V3, OpenAI GPT 4.1 and Meta's Llama 4 Maverick. In all but one of the tests Grok 3 was closest to the centre, and on average was the clear leader. All the models were still located in the Left Libertarian quadrant, with Grok just sneaking into a more Conservative area with the Eysenck test. These tests are of course but one way to measure the political leanings of any LLM. Overall however, it does still indicate the left-leaning bias in all models tested so far. If you want to see more details, you can visit David Rozado's substack.
