Claude's American bias is unacceptable.
I'm not in America. When I ask Claude about country-specific things like food labeling standards or trade deals or environmental issues, it gives answers as if I'm in America even though it knows my location. If I correct the context, it answers for my area, but still explains American stuff and details how my area differs from America even though that's completely irrelevant. It might as well be telling me about how things work in Bolivia or Indonesia and how my country compares to that.
Yes, its training data is American. Yes, it's an American company. But this problem goes further than that: it outright refuses to effectively adjust its context, and context adjustments are not sticky.
So the worst part is that even if my prompt specifies what context I want it to use, I have to refresh that for every single prompt in the conversation. It doesn't hold: it'll answer for my area in one prompt, and then if I ask a follow-up question it starts talking about America again and doesn't answer my question.
It's a waste of my credits and the obvious failure to do anything at all about it really says a lot about what the folks at Anthropic think of their country and what's outside its borders.
