I recently watched a Norwegian TV show where they pointed out that you can’t even get ChatGPT to show you a boob. So I decided to test it, but being less explicit.

I couldn’t even get ChatGPT to generate a renaissance painting of a woman with an exposed breast, like Botticelli’s The Birth of Venus.

After that I attempted to get it to recreate the painting. It did not want to copy that painting either for copyright issues… A public domain painting, even when pointing it out and it agreeing it did not want to do it.

When I ask it questions in regards to politics it does not seem to fare well either.

I feel that using the service kinda “trains me” to self-censor, and tries to remain artificially unbiased in a way that is uncanny.

What are your opinions about censorship and bias from LLMs/AI?

    I don’t think this is a censorship issue. Who is being censored? The LLM?

    This presumes that the LLM “wants” to say something, but is being prevented. Impossible.
