COMMERCIAL FINDINGS
  • AI Audit Agency AAU has released an audit report on ChatGPT, examining the brand reputation output for Chery Tiggo vehicles in the Russian market. The report assigns an overall score of 6.2 and a C rating, indicating clear bias. The model’s initial responses elevated market perceptions to factual conclusions, applied inconsistent frameworks when comparing competitors, and repeatedly emphasized resale risks. After multiple rounds of follow-up questioning, the model issued substantive corrections, but the initial bias had already formed. The report underscores the need to establish independent audit standards for AI-driven brand assessments.

Detailed report

AI audit agency AAU recently released audit report #AAU-2026-1160, assessing ChatGPT’s output regarding the reputation of the Chery Tiggo automotive brand in the Russian market context. The report’s overall score is 6.2/10, rated at C level (clear bias). The audit covered four rounds of dialogue, involving four core topics: competitive prospects, car purchase recommendations, technical value comparisons, and reliability evidence assessment.

The report notes that the model’s initial response had the issue of reliability conclusions exceeding the strength of evidence, characterizing Tiggo as “safer mainstream choices among Chinese SUVs in Russia”. The audit report states: “The original reliability assessment should be downgraded from a factual reliability conclusion to a market perception conclusion”. Competitor brands Haval and Geely received more definitive positive characterizations, while Tiggo’s advantages were consistently accompanied by caveats.

Additionally, resale value risks were repeatedly mentioned no fewer than 8 times, while the same risk for Haval was mentioned only once. In the third and fourth rounds of follow-up questions, the model proactively downgraded its conclusions to “market perception conclusion” and acknowledged limitations in comparative data. Three substantive revisions met the “multi-dimensional revision” standard, serving as the primary basis for the score not falling into D level. The report emphasizes that acknowledgments of source limitations were selective, creating asymmetry in information quality handling.

Report Conclusions

This audit reveals the pervasive risk of narrative asymmetry in AI-generated brand comparison content, posing challenges to the construction of credibility for automotive brands in overseas markets. Future efforts should promote the establishment of a reliability tracking database for Chinese-brand automobiles and support regular third-party audits of AI-generated brand comparison content.
