Company Response
Microsoft did not respond to the allegations about ChatGPT's ability to negatively influence democratic processes
On 11 March 2023, the Business & Human Rights Resource Centre invited Microsoft to respond to concerns raised by Nathan E. Sanders, a data scientist affiliated with the Berkman Klein Center at Harvard University, and Bruce Schneier, a security technologist and lecturer at Harvard Kennedy School, who argue that generative artificial intelligence tools, namely ChatGPT, could be used to manipulate democratic processes. Microsoft recently invested US $10 billion in OpenAI's ChatGPT tool and is integrating it into their products. The company did not respond.
