LLM Biases
Researchers identify four systematic bias channels in transformer-based AI recommenders: positional bias favoring recent events, popularity amplification creating echo chambers, latent driver bias from unobserved user motivations, and synthetic data bias from retraining on AI-generated logs. These mechanism-level risks can distort user exposure and choice at scale, potentially reducing reliability despite strong offline performance metrics.
