That's a good point. The flip side, however, is that OpenGPT is quite severely restricting what its AI can be used for, particularly if they do want to prevent these trivial "workarounds". Stories do in fact have villains who commit crimes, and an author dealing with writer's block might turn to an AI for inspiration. I'm not against restrictions if the benefits outweigh the harms, but the balance here seems pretty out of whack.
