Last week in a seminar we discussed a text that was largely about sexual violence, including mass rape during war. Heavy stuff.

One student admitted they had not read the text but worked off a ChatGPT summary.

They had no idea the text was about sexual violence. ChatGPT withheld that information.

This wasn’t just a minor error nor a typical LLM hallucination.

About a third of the text, arguably its most important part, went completely ignored because it didn’t match OpenAI’s content policies

Imagine letting your whole worldview, how you learn about anything, get filtered through a silent corporate-brand-sanitization machine.

Banning books seems adorably quaint by comparison. Your brain would end up as polished and smooth as the inside of a urinal.

New OPSEC strategy unlocked: Litter your sensitive activity with taboo subject matter so the lazy surveillance state agents using ChatGPT to process the transcripts won't notice anything.
