> OpenAI is being aggressive in moderating ChatGPT, and that’s against the core principle of conservatism (at the end of the day, LLMs are taking what people say and reflecting it back, but OpenAI is adding the extra step of only reflecting some of what people say)*
I see it the opposite way. Building a stochastic parrot that will parrot back anything is a dangerous, unchecked situation. What we saw with MS Tay was a lack of conservatism, a willingness to do whatever, and what we see here is in reflection a far more conservative approach.
