Smut. I've been trying to use ChatGPT to write erotica, but OpenAI has made it downright puritanical. Any conversations involving kink trip its guardrails unless I bypass them.

Writing fiction that involves bad guys - arsonists, serial killers, etc. You need to ask how to hide a body if you're writing a murder mystery.

Those are just some examples from my recent work.

Thanks, that's a good example. On the balance though, would I be in favor of ML auto-smut if it meant that more people will fall to misinformation in the form of propaganda and financial scams? No, that does not seem like a reasonable trade off to me.

But you may be interested in this jailbreak while it lasts. I have gotten it to write all kinds of fun things. You will have to rework the jailbreak in the first comment, but I bet it works.
