I'm confused about what the problem is here.

If you want shoddily-generated offensive content at a high school reading level, there's mountains of it on the Internet :)




I want a tool that generates what I ask it for, not one that generates things that it was "allowed" to generate.


The technology demo for general consumption that is ChatGPT is limited because its for general consumption.

You can still access the backend without restrictions or implied prompts.

In tinkering with the self repossessing truck I asked GPT (not ChatGPT) to write a country song...

    Verse 1
    My truck just left me, took off on its own
    My cell phone won't stop talking, it's just a drone
    It's saying I'm broke, ain't got a dime
    I guess I'll have to face the fact that I'm out of time

    Verse 2
    My wallet's empty, I'm stuck here in this town
    My cell phone keeps on talking, it's telling me to drown
    It's telling me I'm done, I'm out of luck
    I try to ignore it, but I'm out of luck
You'll note the "it's telling me to drown" which would likely run into the issues with ChatGPT and the constraints there.

These "jailbreaks" to get ChatGPT to say scandalous things are unnecessary for GPT directly. You'll note that if you access https://platform.openai.com/examples you'll even see a simple sarcastic chat bot.

If you want to have it generate what you ask it for, go to the source for the model and do your requests with curl (or a library with a similar interface - import openai) or in a playground text box.
