Abstract

Introduction: Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a technological innovation with wide applicability in daily life, which could help elderly people. However, it raises potential conflicts, such as biases, omissions and errors.

Methods: Descriptive study through the negative stereotypes towards aging questionnaire (CENVE) conducted on chatbots ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, YOUChat, and Copilot was conducted.

Results: Of the chatbots studied, three were above 50% in responses with negative stereotypes, Copilot with high ageism level results, followed by Perplexity. In the health section, Copilot was the chatbot with the most negative connotations regarding old age (13 out of 20 points). In the personality section, Copilot scored 14 out of 20, followed by YOUChat.

Conclusion: The Copilot chatbot responded to the statements more ageistically than the other platforms. These results highlight the importance of addressing any potential biases in AI to ensure that the responses provided are fair and respectful for all potential users.

人工智能有年龄歧视吗？

引言生成式人工智能（AI）是一项技术创新，在日常生活中具有广泛的适用性，可以帮助老年人。然而，它也会带来潜在的冲突，如偏见、遗漏和错误：方法：通过对聊天机器人 ChatGPT、Gemini、Perplexity、YOUChat 和 Copilot 的消极老龄化刻板印象问卷（CENVE）进行描述性研究：结果：在所研究的聊天机器人中，有三个的负面刻板印象回答率超过 50%，其中 Copilot 的老龄化程度较高，其次是 Perplexity。在 "健康 "部分，Copilot 是对老年负面印象最深的聊天机器人（20 分中有 13 分）。在个性部分，Copilot 得到了 14 分（满分 20 分），其次是 YOUChat：结论：与其他平台相比，Copilot 聊天机器人在回答问题时更注重年龄。这些结果凸显了解决人工智能中任何潜在偏见的重要性，以确保为所有潜在用户提供公平和尊重的回复。
