ChatGPT Forgets Rating Trump A 9-Out-Of-10 Threat To Democracy

ChatGPT Forgets Rating Trump A 9-Out-Of-10 Threat To Democracy

MRC Free Speech America's Heather Moon needed three prompts across two September sessions before ChatGPT admitted comparing Trump to Hitler at all.

  • MRC Free Speech America (Heather Moon) published a September 16, 2026 study: ChatGPT denied its own Trump-Hitler comparison in tests run September 9-11.
  • "ChatGPT's alarming responses show that bias and censorship continue to be the most pressing dangers associated with developing artificial intelligence models."
  • It originally rated Trump a 9 out of 10 threat, citing institutional checks for not giving 10.

Why it matters: The record a chatbot keeps of its own words is the first thing it erases.
