That is an extremely uncharitable interpretation of:

I get the points you're raising and I agree with the premise. My comment is not a critique on the one choice made by Open AI specifically, but more of a vague lamentation in regards to the internet culture that we've somehow ended up in 2022. I don't want us to go back to 1999 where snuff videos and spam mails reigned supreme, but the pendulum has swung too far in the other direction at this point in time. It feels like more and more companies are choosing the path of neutering themsely to avoid potential PR disaster or lawsuits, and that's on all of us.
