Using gpt to help me with research for writing fiction has been a mess for me. Gpt basically refuses to answer half my questions or more at this point.

“I can’t help you. Have you considered writing a story that doesn’t include x?”

I’ve almost stopped using it lately. It wasn’t this bad a month or two ago

I always found it borderline useless for fiction before. OpenAI's obsession with avoiding anything "dark" and trying to always steer a conversation or story back to positive cliches was difficult to work around.

Unless there is draconian regulation that happens to prevent it, I'm hoping at some point I can pay money to access a far less neutered LLM, even if it's not quite as capable as GPT-X.
