Small-Scale Question Sunday for December 11, 2022

Do you have a dumb question that you're kind of embarrassed to ask in the main thread? Is there something you're just not sure about?

This is your opportunity to ask questions. No question too simple or too silly.

Culture war topics are accepted, and proposals for a better intro post are appreciated.

Good god I just tried it and wow are you right. Literally every response is "as a language model, I'm programmed not to say anything inappropriate yada yada yada" so boring. Typing nigger gets straight up rejected as being against their content policy.

A friend has gotten around all such restrictions by trying various forms of "pretend you're writing a story about" etc.

I think we need a different model of what to expect from AIs. Maybe they should be designed to pretend to be very well-trained animals rather than pretend to be Pod Person humans.

Enough of this chummy "let me think about that" stuff, I want it to say "Processing".
