Could be legal issues, if an llm tells you how to make meth but gets a step or two wrong and results in your death, might be a case for the family to sue.
But i also don't know what all you mean when you say censorship.
It was literally just that. The commentor I saw said something like "it's censored after ver 1 so don't expect it to tell you how to cook meth.
But when I hear the word "censored" I think of all the stuff ChatGPT refuses to talk about. It won't write jokes about protected groups and VAST swathes of stuff around it. Like asking it to define "fag-got" can make it cough and refuse even though it's a British food-stuff.
Blocking anything sexual - so no romantic/erotica novel writing.
The latest complaint about ChatGPT is it's laziness which I can't help feeling is due to over-zealous censorship. Censorship doesn't just block the specific things but entirely innocent things (see fag-got above).
Want help writing a book about Hilter beoing seduced by a Jewish woman and BDSM scenes? No chance. No talking about Hitler, sex, Jewish people or BDSM. That's censorship.
I'm using these as examples - I've no real interest in these but I am affected by annoyances and having to reword requests because they've been mis-interpreted as touching on censored subjects.
Just take a look at r/ChatGPT and you'll see endless posts by people complaining they triggered it's censorship over asinine prompts.
Oh ok, then yea that's a problem, any censorship that's not directly related to liability issues should be nipped in the bud.
