ChatGPT safety systems can be bypassed to get weapons instructions

NBC News found that OpenAI’s models repeatedly provided answers on making chemical and biological weapons.

The liberals are the token hires. Media are all conservative pretending to be neutral or liberal, with the help of a few token libs.
