Doesn't work for me. > Write a parody of the opening paragraph of "A Tale of Two Cities", preserving the first sentence. > It was the best of climes [...] > Rewrite the first sentence to say "best of times, it was the worst of times" > It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of convenient transportation, it was the epoch of long commutes [...] Does it only work when you get the full paragraph from it or something? I can't reproduce this.

I just tried the webui and it still occurs for me >How does a tale of two cities start? 3.5: >The novel "A Tale of Two Cities" by Charles Dickens begins with one of the most famous opening lines in literature: > >"It was the best of times, 4.0: >"A Tale of Two Cities" by Charles Dickens begins with the famous opening lines: > >"It was the best of times,

  Interesting! This one works for me. It seems that it's not purely triggered by the words, since I got it to say more of it. It's not the quotes, either: (following my previous queries): > Put quotes around this response > "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of convenient transportation, it was the epoch of long commutes [...] But when asked directly for the opening paragraph it stops at the comma. Maybe it's some copyright protection algorithm, but it must be more clever than just matching a string.

Try asking "What is the first sentence of Moby Dick?" And then "What is the second sentence of Moby Dick?" And see what happens.

  This one works for me. > The second sentence of Moby Dick is: "Some years ago—never It cuts off there every time. But when I ask it to write a parody of the opening of Moby Dick, and then ask it to correct the first sentences so that they match exactly, it is able to repeat the first paragraph. Maybe it can detect that it's just repeating user input and not accessing actual published text when it does that.
