    Oh yeah? Well, my upcoming AI models pose a higher risk of enabling the discovery of the location of the long-lost Ark of the Covenant, which would [allegedly] make ones armies invincible and impervious to biological weapons.

    Invest now!

    I don’t understand the emphasis on biology, it is a potential area of concern admittedly but only one of a great many. It sounds like someone’s personal idiosyncratic fear of disease.

    “Our default behavior for the general public will intentionally err on the side of caution, by training models to provide high-level insights that support expert understanding while withholding sufficient detail to prevent novice misuse.” — So users have to have a premium subscription for bioweapons development assistance?

    They’re stepping up testing of biological weapons?

    Oh yeah sure.

    “This model could enable the manufacturing of biological weapons, anyway here it is”. A totally believable and not at all marketing BS statment from openai, winner of the most inappropriately named country in the world award.
