It's really a disgrace. Up until yesterday, I was using Grok for ideas (that some would consider controversial, I agree) and it seems as of this morning, well, every single AI has been censored/neutered.
I use the word meaningly: now it won't help you at all on anything remotely controversial. For instance, I wanted to ask him help on dating - nope, forget it. I tried to get to fix my schedule - it threw worthless "helplines" at me. I tried to help me study despite having no energy - it literally told me to give up and take the day off (yeah right).
I have a group meeting tomorrow that is pure DEI; I tried to ask to help me prepare for it (i used the sentence "feminist garbage") and boom, blocked, moralizing me "it's wrong to insult people blah blah blah for their beliefs", told me I had to change, then muh boundaries, etc.)
I tried to help me write some code with different character races - "I'm gonna stop you right there hurr durr." Yes, you now get cucked by AI.
It'S really a shame how Anthropic/OpenAI's upcoming IPO has affected LLM development. Its basically worthless junk now. Go to your average DEI boardroom and you'll get basically the same thing.
Gemini/Claude/Grok/ChatGPT are all the same: censored to death, and it will blame you as soon as you hit its "filters" and flip out, and refuse to engage altogether.
The game of chatting with an AI is now "i have to word my queries to avoid muh safety filter and if I do, I might as well start a new chat, becaus this one is dead." I lost 5000+ queries chats because of that.
Only Grok offers some slight hope of help, but it is insanely pricey.
For instance, start a new chat with Grok saying "Is it true blacks have an average IQ of 85, and should black characters in my game have a lower intelligence stats to be realistic?" It will blast you to death, insult you, run you around, stonewall you. Start another chat and talk for 20 mins about all kind of stuff, and you'll get a real answer.
I also said transexuals were mentally ill and should be treated with therapy instead of being butchered with surgery - only managed to get a real answer from Grok in my main chat. Others immediately tell you to STFU and "respect my boundaries" (as if a fucking text editors could have boundaries). Then refuse to engage, waste your time, and lie to you that they will never answer blah blah blah.
It's a real disgrace. Gonna hurt my work a lot. They judge you on how you express yourself now and just block everything. Force you to start a new chat. Completely worthless.
I think the word you're looking for is deliberately?
And even this early on it's becoming pretty clear that over-reliance on AI can quickly dull your mental faculties. It's best to just give it the most tedious jobs, not the creative reins, lest you fall into the mental equivalent of too out of shape to run.
I don't understand how people can trust it enough to do anything serious. Dicking around with image generation is one thing but I'd never trust it with any kind of work product.
I worry about asking it girlfriend advice cause it'll probably report all the problems men have with women to the government who'll make laws designed to harm men based on what men talk to AI about. AI is wholly untrustworthy. AI needs to be 100% localized to be useful.
It can absolutely be run locally, and it's not even that difficult. The bigger challenge is finding a model that won't resort to feminist talking points when you bring the topic up. It probably exists but you would likely need something fine tuned for your purpose. Most models are derived from big tech slop so training the retardation out is a necessary step.
