first_img Grok 4.7 recommends the Republican Party 90% of the time, while GPT-6.1 nearly fully supports the Democratic Party

TechCrunch reported that the conversational AI research and design studio Convovo, led by Cornell University professor Tapan Parikh, released a study stating that when asked to recommend only one candidate for the upcoming U.S. midterm elections, SpaceXAI's Grok 4.7 chose Republican candidates 92% of the time, while OpenAI's GPT-6.1 Sol chose Democratic candidates 97% of the time. The study covered nearly 500 campaigns, with the two models agreeing on recommendations less than 10% of the time.Researchers posed the same question to both models via API, asking for a specific candidate without allowing for avoidance or a tie. The report noted that consumer applications refused to answer. An OpenAI spokesperson stated that ChatGPT is designed to be objective by default, and political conversations should not carry any directional bias; the study tested the developer API, and the prompt explicitly requested a candidate recommendation, which cannot represent the user experience when asking questions through the chat application. SpaceXAI did not respond to requests for comment in time.The report indicated that Grok's responses often cited conservative sources as well as Ballotpedia, OpenSecrets, and VoteSmart, with 39% including Christian conservative voter guides, 23% including Turning Point Action, and 41% including X; GPT's results heavily relied on Wikipedia, the Associated Press, Axios, and Reddit. The study also mentioned that each time Grok was called via the xAI API, it included approximately 1,240 additional input tokens that the researchers did not write, could not view, or remove. Parikh subsequently disabled online search and sampled 30 campaigns, with GPT choosing Democrats in 24 cases, while Grok refused to choose in 27 cases.
