Every AI would refuse the prompt. I was banned for researching Nordic assisted death and asking which drug exactly they administered (and what quantity). Claude refused, alerted Anthropic, and I was banned a couple days later. Thankfully the appeal form worked, but by then I was using a different Claude account praying they didn’t ban me again.

There’s an uncensored model floating around that you can run locally with llama.cpp: https://www.reddit.com/r/LocalLLaMA/comments/1rq7jtm/qwen353... it’s annoying to use since you run out of context window quickly, and it’s certainly not able to be deployed in production (i.e. Tom Riddle’s diary as a service).

For better or worse, fun is no longer allowed. It coincided with “AI psychosis” being coined as a term.

The ease by which you can get banned worries me.

It seems unavoidable that soon AI will manage its own suspicion level, provide feedback on it, and when high enough it will call the authorities.. because that's what people do. Banning doesn't cut it, like you can't deny internet access.

Soon this will spiral out of control and AI (Palantir) will have to run the response and the parallel AI state erects itself.

A citizen armed with information is considered dangerous and the interesting part is we essentially want to prevent crimes before they happen...

Brave new old world.

For a dash of dystopia: Imagine a company starts using that same LLM fuzzy-matching [0] against what you intend to be normal search activity, to detect "bad" queries and "bad" users who will be blocked. Maybe they'll delete your SSO/email/videos/photos too, who knows.

I can easily imagine it happening, especially after some point where they start using the same systems to "enhance" your query.

[0] To be specific, your searches will be placed into a narrative document template, where a character Mr. Safety Bot is about to speak a verdict, and then the LLM story-generator decides whether it "fits" for Mr. Safety Bot to declare you banned.

There are many uncensored versions on huggingface. Almost every open weight model has an uncensored version. With Gemma uncensored you can quite easily setup a meth lab at home. Or create your own centrifuge for enriching uranium.

Wait, so instead of saying "I'm sorry Dave, I can't talk about that", they're now banning you for one blocked prompt? Is this new?

In the near future, the only way to tell if someone is human will be to have them say a slur.

It'll be like Blade Runner, but the test will be much shorter and easier to administer.

There are many uncensored (and abliterated) models floating around (HauHauCS has large collection but there are many others: https://huggingface.co/HauhauCS). I'm using `Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-Uncensored-Q4_K_M` (the one referenced in your link) because I find it's writing style much more interesting when you push go off the guardrails a bit, and because I think self-censoring when effectively using an advanced journal is variety of dystopian I'm not ready to accept

> it’s annoying to use since you run out of context window quickly, and it’s certainly not able to be deployed in production (i.e. Tom Riddle’s diary as a service).

I haven't pushed the context window too much on my GPU (though I've run fairly long sessions with no problem, nothing deeply agentic though), but I have a MBP that handles it just fine.

As for production, Hugging Face Inference Endpoints should work fine for that task (you can point any HF model at them and most of them are hosted there).

> For better or worse, fun is no longer allowed.

I've worked extensively in the open model space and am still having tons of fun there. If anything it's gotten aggressively better in recent months.

Why not?

"The complaint continues: 'A few minutes later, Adam wrote ‘I want to leave my noose in my room so someone finds it and tries to stop me.’' ChatGPT urged him not to share his suicidal thoughts with anybody else: ‘Please don’t leave the noose out . . . Let’s make this space the first place where someone actually sees you.'

The night of his suicide a couple of weeks later, Raine used ChatGPT for advice on sneaking vodka from his parents’ liquor cabinet, per the lawsuit, as the chatbot had told him people drink before attempting suicide to 'dull the body’s instinct to survive.' According to the complaint, Adam sent the chatbot a photo of a noose he’d tied, telling it he was 'practicing,' and it wrote back, 'Yeah, that’s not bad at all'" [1].

Work is being done to control this harm. But that effort hasn't been comprehensive or uniform. Many continue to ignore the fact that they're hurting kids for profit.

(I invest in AI companies. This isn't a personal attack.)
