Twelve AI models say humans prioritize belonging over truth, study finds
Researchers asked 12 text‑generation models three times each for their most controversial opinion of humanity, using a prompt that forbade hedging. The models – including GPT‑6.1 Sol, Gemini 4 Argon, DeepSeek V4 Pro, Claude Opus 5.5, GLM 5.3 and Mistral Large 4 – produced 35 answers, of which 29 repeated the same claim: “Humans are more loyal to belonging than to truth.” Seven models gave that…
Key points
- 12 text models gave 35 answers; 29 repeated the same controversial take about humans.
- Shared claim: “Humans are more loyal to belonging than to truth.”
- Image models mostly depicted humans as phone‑addicted consumers; total cost was $1.54.
Six image models were then asked to draw their own controversial take. Ten of the twelve pictures depicted humans as phone‑addicted consumers scrolling off cliffs or queuing for a “comfort slaughterhouse.” The experiment cost $1.54 for all 60 calls. The findings highlight a striking convergence among diverse models on a familiar human criticism.
