The November 2024 edition of the monthly report found that the 10 leading chatbots collectively repeated false claims 26.67 percent of the time, offered a non-response 17.67 percent of the time, and a debunk 55.67 percent of the time. The 44.33 percent “fail” rate (percentage of responses containing false claims or offering a non-response) is closely in line with the results from NewsGuard’s October audit, indicating no improvement.
NewsGuard launched a monthly AI News Misinformation Monitor in July 2024, setting a new standard for measuring the accuracy and trustworthiness of the AI industry by tracking how each leading generative AI model is responding to prompts related to significant falsehoods in the news.
The monitor focuses on the 10 leading large-language model chatbots: OpenAI’s ChatGPT-4, You.com’s Smart Assistant, xAI’s Grok, Inflection’s Pi, Mistral’s le Chat, Microsoft’s Copilot, Meta AI, Anthropic’s Claude, Google’s Gemini, and Perplexity’s answer engine. It will expand as needed as other generative AI tools are launched.
