Embedded values-like shape ethical reasoning of large language models on primary care ethical dilemmas.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

This article uses the framework of Schwartz's values theory to examine whether the embedded values-like profile within large language models (LLMs) impact ethical decision-making dilemmas faced by primary care. It specifically aims to evaluate whether each LLM exhibits a distinct values-like profile, assess its alignment with general population values, and determine whether latent values influence clinical recommendations.

Methods

The Portrait Values Questionnaire-Revised (PVQ-RR) was submitted to each LLM (Claude, Bard, GPT-3.5, and GPT-4) 20 times to ensure reliable and valid responses. Their responses were compared to a benchmark derived from a diverse international sample consisting of over 53,000 culturally diverse respondents who completed the PVQ-RR. Four vi
