What does ChatGPT know about top Pakistani politicians?

 A new AI bot has arrived and is now dominating the internet. Since its release in November, ChatGPT, created by Open AI, has gained popularity and is daily gaining more users.

A free programme that uses artificial intelligence (AI) to power chatbots creates content in response to a query, including articles, essays, jokes, and even poetry.

The contentious model converses with people, but the chatbot was trained with data that only extends through 2021.

We questioned ChatGPT over the identities of Imran Khan, Shehbaz Sharif, Nawaz Sharif, Maryam Nawaz, Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari, Asif Ali Zardari, Maulana Fazlur Rehman, Fawad Chaudhry, Shireen Mazari, Parvez Elahi, and Siraj ul Haq.

Let's find out what information ChatGPT has about these Pakistani leaders.

Imran Khan

The AI chatbot may be slow to keep up with current events as evidenced by its response to a question regarding PTI chairman Imran Khan, who it referred to as the country's current prime minister.

As previously reported, it will begin receiving information in 2022.

What ChatGPT said is as follows:

Imran Khan is the country's current prime minister as well as a former cricketer from Pakistan. On October 5, 1952, he was born in Lahore, Pakistan.

"Khan, who helped his country win the 1992 Cricket World Cup, is regarded as one of Pakistan's all-time best cricketers. He established the Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research Centre in Lahore after quitting cricket, which offers free cancer treatment to patients from poor backgrounds.

"Khan created Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) in 1996 with the intention of establishing a welfare state devoid of corruption in Pakistan. He has criticised Pakistan's established political parties loudly and ran for office on an anti-corruption platform.

"Khan first entered the Pakistani parliament in 2002, but for many years his party was only a tiny influence in the country's politics. But in the 2010s, PTI became more popular, especially among young voters. After winning the 2018 general election, Khan became Pakistan's prime minister.

Shehbaz Shareef

ChatGPT claimed that PM Sharif was a PML-N member, demonstrating once more how out of touch it is with current events.

Please explain me who Shehbaz Sharif is, we requested ChatGPT.

The bot answered:

"Pakistani politician Shehbaz Sharif presided as Punjab's chief minister from 2013 to 2018. He belongs to the Pakistan Muslim League (Nawaz), which is a significant political force in Pakistan."

"The PML-N is led by Shehbaz Sharif, the younger brother of former Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif. In addition, he has held ministerial positions in Pakistan's federal government and membership in the National Assembly of Pakistan."

Nawaz Sharif 

When questioned about former Pakistani prime minister Nawaz Sharif, the bot pointed to and gave a brief synopsis of his life.

What ChatGPT mentioned is as follows:

"Pakistani politician Nawaz Sharif held the position of prime minister three times, from 1990 to 1993, 1997 to 1999, and 2013 to 2017. The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), one of the biggest political parties in Pakistan, is a political party he founded.

For many years, Sharif has been a key player in Pakistani politics. During his time as prime minister, economic reforms, infrastructure expansion, and improved ties with India took place. His political career has, however, also been clouded by scandal, including claims of corruption and his participation in a number of well-known court cases.

 Maryam Nawaz

She was correctly identified by ChatGPT as a "prominent PML-N member," emphasising her "active engagement in her party's politics."

The bot described Maryam Nawaz as follows:

"Politician Maryam Nawaz is descended from former Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif. She is a well-known representative of Pakistan Muslim League (Nawaz), a significant political force in the country."

"Maryam Nawaz has been a political activist for her party, acting as its spokesman and being a major player in its electoral campaigns. In Pakistan, she has also taken part in a variety of social and charity endeavours."

Bhutto-Zardari, Bilawal

"Politician Bilawal Bhutto Zardari is the leader of the Pakistan People's Party (PPP), one of the biggest and most established political organisations in Pakistan. He is the son of Benazir Bhutto, a former Pakistani prime minister, and Asif Ali Zardari, a former president of Pakistan."

"Bilawal Bhutto entered politics after his mother was killed in an assassination in 2007. His leadership in the PPP has since increased, and he is now regarded as a rising star in Pakistani politics. Bhutto, who has a reputation for emphasising social justice and human rights, has been an outspoken opponent of the military's involvement in politics. Additionally, he has been a vocal supporter of democratic reforms, such as the transfer of authority to local governments and the bolstering of institutions like the judiciary and the media.

Despite still being young, Bilawal Bhutto has already had a substantial impact on Pakistan's political scene and is regarded as a potential future leader of the nation.

Asif Ali Zardari 

This time, we attempted to investigate the bot as well, and it performed admirably. When questioned about Zardari, it provided the information below:

"Pakistani politician Asif Ali Zardari serves as co-chairman of the Pakistan People's Party (PPP), one of the country's main political parties. From 2008 to 2013, he presided over Pakistan as president. Former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto was murdered in 2007, and Zardari is her widower."

Prior to becoming president, Zardari had a long career in Pakistani politics, serving as a federal minister and a member of the National Assembly of Pakistan. Throughout his political career, he has also been accused of many corruptions.

When pushed for more information, the bot was able to respond.

"Okay, here are some additional details about Asif Ali Zardari:

On July 26, 1955, in Nawabshah, Sindh, Pakistan, Zardari was born. Up until her murder in 2007, he was married to Benazir Bhutto, who presided as Pakistan's prime minister in the 1990s. After Bhutto's passing, Zardari was elected co-chairman of the Pakistan People's Party (PPP).

The 1980s saw the start of Zardari's own political career, and he has been affiliated with the PPP ever since. He participated in Pakistan's National Assembly from 1990 to 1996 and then again from 1997 to 1999."
