Study: AI chatbots link pregnant users to anti-abortion sites without disclosure
The Decoder · rss · 2026-08-24
An AlgorithmWatch investigation found that AI chatbots like ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok, and Claude regularly link users to anti-abortion groups when asked about unplanned pregnancies, often without disclosing their stance. In 270 responses, the anti-abortion organization Profemina appeared in 17% of answers. In Germany, chatbots also directed users to Caritas for mandatory counseling, even though it doesn't issue the legally required certificate.
