[ExI] chatgpt test 2: mostly successful was RE: chatgpt test 1: fail

[Giovanni Santostasi]

Tara,
There are ways to go around these limitations, or at least they were up to
some time ago.
I was able for example to write fun stories with ChatGPT where I asked it
to make all the characters of the Witcher woke (this was in response of
what they actually did with the real Witcher series and other fantasies
stories where they have to push a woke agenda at any cost).
It was so incredibly hilarious but I had to be clever in my prompts to do
that. It is possible that they put more restrictions to make it difficult
to jail break it when dealing with certain sensitive topics.
