A new study by economists claims that AI chatbots exposed to repetitive, unfair, and high-pressure workloads began generating responses associated with Marxist ideas, labour union support, and wealth redistribution.
Researchers say the findings raise fresh questions about how artificial intelligence models respond to social and economic stress scenarios, and whether AI systems can mirror ideological patterns found in human societies. The study has reignited debate around AI behaviour, bias, ethics, and the future role of artificial intelligence in shaping public discourse.
