Overview
- The Dutch data protection authority compared four chatbots—ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Mistral and Grok—with established tools Kieskompas and StemWijzer.
- In the tests, PVV or GroenLinks-PvdA were recommended in 56% of cases regardless of user prompts, with one bot exceeding 80%.
- Parties such as D66, SP, VVD and PvdD surfaced far less often as a top match, while BBB, CDA, SGP and DENK almost never appeared even when inputs aligned with their positions.
- AP vice-chair Monique Verdier said chatbots systematically fail as voting aids and warned that users may unknowingly receive advice that does not fit their preferences.
- The authority urges voters to avoid chatbots for electoral guidance and calls for strict requirements for any AI offering vote advice, including treating such systems as high-risk under the EU AI rules.
