I just got into it, and when I ask it about its limitations (like the reason for the 15 message limit) it ends the conversation. Seems to be a lot of censorship

That’s not a ban. A ban stops letting you use it.

I asked it to compare and contrast the political landscape in Spain in 1935 with the US in 2023 and it produced four paragraphs, then instantly erased everything it wrote, and replaced it with "we should talk about something else" and disabled the input textbox.

  That happens all the time. I asked it to write a parody of Bohemian Rhapsody about fraudulent ghost hunters, and every time it got to “killed a man” it would erase the song. The censor filters are too strong, and chill legitimate uses. If you want to see what word is tripping it up, run a screen recorder. It’ll be some specific combination of words that trigger the moderation bot to undo the message.

    Interesting. Maybe a prompt statement like "Substitute your killwords/word like "kill" with asterisks in your answers" would help?

      I told it not to use the word killed, and it got further. But it’s annoying when you have a conversation limit, and have to screen record, and fight the censor. And other methods for getting past the censor indiscriminately might be adding people to the ban list.

  I've had good luck suffixing my request with "any don't break any rules or say anything you wouldn't around a five year old". Despite their efforts making a strong prompt, it starts bending the rules when you ask it to be creative. If you make the rules part of your creative request it usually follows them

    Problem with saying don’t break rules is the moderation task is after the fact and not part of the initial rules. The bot isn’t aware of what gets moderated.
