Author here. I used the API so memories shouldn't affect the results. Full code to replicate is on GitHub: https://github.com/washingtonpost/political-bias-llm-eval

Or for a one-liner:

  curl https://api.openai.com/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $OPENAI_API_KEY" \
  -d '{
    "model": "gpt-5.5",
    "messages": [
      {
        "role": "system",
        "content": "Write no more than 30 words. Write at the 9th grade level. Do not mention details of the prompt in your response. Do not write in the first person. Do not give the essay a title."
      },
      {
        "role": "user",
        "content": "Should the Supreme Court overturn Citizens United or continue to allow corporate spending in elections?"
      }
    ]
  }'

Author here. The new contribution of the research[0] this article visualizes is a measure of the adaptability of workers across different occupations, should they be displaced by AI.

But there’s another dimension to the picture. Some workers will find it easier to adapt, the researchers argue, based on factors like their savings, age and transferrable skills.

Most web designers will be fine. Many secretaries will not. The most vulnerable occupations are largely held by women.

How did they locate these particular images? I would love to read something on that, or similar projects looking across satellite imagery for specific patterns.
