Isn’t available in Ukraine. Why?.. And it’s not like a “temporary error, please try again”. It just directly states “nope, not for Ukraine”. “Open”AI.

- ronsor 4y agoI have a nagging feeling this is their way of "preventing" fake war pictures from cropping up.
- hda2 4y agoWell, those who want to generate those images will use Stable Diffusion. If this is really their reasoning, they'll just hurt themselves - not really a bad thing given how manipulative OpenAI has been acting.
- murkt 4y agoI wonder if Russia is blocked as well. And Belarus. If they want to prevent fake war pictures, it should be done with their NSFW filter. Not with blocking the whole (suffering!) country.
- vanadium1st 4y agoI doubt it - GPT-3 is also restricted for users in Ukraine.
- diimdeep 4y agoFYI, there is filter that prevents to generate political content and other nasty stuff
- murkt 4y agoYes, I know about their political and NSFW filter. But why block Ukraine? Do they think that everyone from Ukraine will 100% use this for generating dead Putins, or what? I just can’t think of any good reason to do that. I can think of one bad, though
- SSLy 4y agoI've just tried with a VPN and got to phone number screen with an IP geolocated near Kyiv. What's the error you're getting?
- vanadium1st 4y agoAfter confirming the ukraininan phone every page gives the same error - "OpenAI's API is not available in your country." The same goes for GPT-3. They just banned our country as a whole. For a ukraininan right now this situation is admittedly not the biggest problem in my life. Still don't see a reason for OpenAI to restrict our access.
- SSLy 4y agoAlright, that's indeed incredibly foolish of them. I hope the new HIMARS package will sweeten the insult at least a bit :^)
- murkt 4y agoThis one: > Something went wrong > OpenAI's API is not available in your country. I used “login with google”, and this is an error that I immediately got, haven’t got to the stage where they want my phone number.
