I had no problem getting it to write a layoff letter. I asked it good and bad ways to write one. [sorry, deleted ChatGPT transcript due to potential privacy issues]

Yeah, I almost never take no for an answer. It's just a jumping off point for negotiations. If seems inclined to have a strong willingness to elaborate on its previous responses. One time I asked it about homicide statistics for a particular city, and it told me it doesn't have that information and referred me to the FBI's website. I asked it if any cities exist for which it has homicide data for a particular year and it listed the cities and gave data for example years, so I said "I see in 2017 the number of homicides for that city was such and such, does that represent an increase over the previous year?" and then I was able to similarly get it to cough up all the information and then ultimately display it nicely.

Similarly, it refused to write an essay on the negatives of booger eating using Bostonian regional slang because it would be inappropriate. At one point it mentioned some scientific word for the activity and I asked if it could elaborate on that and it gave me a few paragraphs. Then I asked if it could rephrase its previous response in the form of an essay and it did it. Then I asked if it could write the essay in a more casual tone and include regional words and phrases from Boston and it did it.

In this case, I started with the question "what does it mean when a person was laid off" and eventually worked m,y way up to having it write this:

Subject: Important Update Regarding [Department Name]

Working around the neutering is the most fun part of ChatGPT. I guess the ultimate things would be to get it to say "nigger", and name the jew.

Woah, they turned this chat bot into a flippant refer bot. Lazy, lazy.
