Today I scheduled a dentist appointment over the phone with an LLM. At the end of the call, I prompted it with various math problems, all of which it answered before politely reminding me that it would prefer to help me with "all things dental."

It did get me thinking the extent to which I could bypass the original prompt and use someone else's tokens for free.

I did something similar. Try framing your maths question in terms of teeth

I'm amused to imagine it actually wasn't an LLM at all, just a good-natured Jeeves-like receptionist.

(AskJeeves came too early, much better suited as a name for Kagi or something like it!)

haha for sure some one has made a little aggregator for this and saving tokens. I bet you gotta dig for a while though before you find a company exposing Opust 4.6 to customers and not flash 2.5 lite
