But would you like your kids to learn that there are no fat people, only "differently weight abled"? That being overweight is not bad for you, it just makes you a victim of oppression and deserve, no actually require a sympathy? No smart people, only "mentally privileged" that deserve, no actually require a public condemnation? These are all examples of a 'wrongthink'. It's a long list, but you get the idea.

I think you have a bad media diet if you think any of those are actual problems in the real world and not just straw men made by provocateurs stirring the pot.

Honestly though, I would prefer an AI that was strictly neutral about anything other than purely factual information. That isn't really possible with the tech we have now though. I think we need to loudly change the public perception of what chatGPT and similar actually are. They are fancy programs that create convincing hallucinations, directed by your input. We need to think of it as a brainstorming tool, not a knowledge engine.
