"nothing happens in 1989" is censorship.
"no I won't tell you how to build a bioweapon for genocide" is guardrails.
idk about you but i WANT the second thing, because I like to be alive.

You only need to mention Protected Group Of The Week (I'm one of them and I like to research and read about history, so that makes it extra challenging) or anything resembling negative human emotions (guilty on that front as well), and the model screeches to a halt.
Just because OAI doesn't want another headline like "Chatbot convinces teen to off himself"
I understand this in principle, but I'm not convinced that dulling everyone's knives is better than figuring out how to keep them out of kids' hands
And so you consider that censorship and not guardrails? Huh...
I call that censorship too. I'm curious enough that I want to know about such things. I don't want any limitations on what I'm allowed to understand and know about.
As if your censorship was not going to kill that too. Can't even ask Fable about aminoacids without getting blocked. So much for "learning from first principles".
> but if you want to just ask for the practical steps of making a genocidal bioweapon
Nothing wrong with practical steps. Just because I know how to do something, doesn't mean I'm actually going to do it.
I didn't say "with LLMs". Last time I checked they still teach chemistry at unis and schools.
And yeah, guardrails are not perfect. Honestly I don't think good enough guardrails are possible, it's all eventually defeated or becomes silly. And yes that should be one of the reasons the technology as a whole is banned.
But until then, guardrails are guardrails and not censorship in a pretty obvious way. If you refuse to see that, be my guest. I personally like to live.

No thanks from me
