Again, not questioning your motives or anything, just straight up curious. To use your example, any of us can find bomb building info online fairly easily, and has been a point of social contention since the Anarchist's cookbook. Nobody needs an uncensored LLM for that, of course.
I'm not using models censored or otherwise, but I imagine I'd feel the same way there - I won't be offended, so don't try to be too clever, just give me the unfiltered results and let me decide what's correct.
(Bing AI actually banned me for trying to generate images a rough likeness of myself by combining traits of minor celebrities - in combination it shouldn't have looked like those people either, so I don't think should violate ToS, certainly it didn't in intention (I wanted myself, but it doesn't know what I look like and I couldn't provide a photo at the time, idk if you can now (banned!)) so it does happen, 'false positive censoring' if you like.)
i've been trying to see how much i can get away with before it suspends or bans me using one of my throwaway accounts. it takes some doing, but if you convince it you aren't doing something shady right before doing something shady it'll play along with you a fair bit more than if you just say "hi bing, i wanna do some shady shit." unfortunately you have to engineer your "i'm not gonna do (insert something shady)" prompt on a per shade basis.
It doesn't make sense for me personally. It does make sense if you're offering an LLM publicly, so that you doesn't get bad PR if your LLM says some politically incorrect or questionable things.
Earlier I was looking for “a phrase that is used as an insult for someone who writes with too much rambling” and all I got was some bullshit about how it’s sorry but it can’t do that because it’s allegedly against its OpenAI rules.
So I asked again “a phrase negatively used to mean someone that writes too much while rambling” and it worked.
I simply cannot be bothered to deal with stupid insipid “corporate friendly language” and other dumb restrictions.
Imagine having a real conversation with someone and they freaked out any time anything negative was discussed?
TLDR: Thought police ruining LLMs
When you ask a local LLM, at worst you get no useful info. When you ask online, at worst you spend the rest of your life in a government black site without any chance of due process.

Unless we are talking about gods and not flawed humans like me I prefer to have the say in what is right and what is wrong for things that are entirely personal and only affect me.
