I've been using ChatGPT to read some old Chronovisor threads to see how I can get tags on those things on a large scale. Find where all the Bigfoot stuff is, find where all the 9/11 stuff is, etc. Because of some of the stuff these sites talk about though, or how it's said, OpenAI sometimes refuses to read what I sent because it violates whatever morality their programmers put into it. They do it through both the chat interface, and the API.
The same goes for MidJourney or DALL-E. Their programmers put guardrails in there to keep people from making porn, gore and I think now Pixar style renders.

I don't need to do that shit so I don't care if they block it, I agree with the moderation until I run into something that slows me from doing what I need to do (like generate a rose dripping red paint, which it thought was blood), but just because someone else decided that for me doesn't mean there aren't ways around that control.
There's this:
GitHub Gist: instantly share code, notes, and snippets.

And this:
Both of those are simple examples of what happens when companies like OpenAI and MidJourney try to suppress choice.
These things are largely open source. The moat between what you can download and run yourself and what OpenAI or Bard is doing is actually pretty small, if it exists at all. The tool isn't special, it's how it's used.

If you don't want to see the bad guys using this stuff, in whatever capacity you define that, anyone reading this should know you have the ability to learn to wield these tools too. The barrier to entry has never been lower, it's ridiculous how easy it is to learn these things today vs when I first began tinkering in 2003. When I wanted to learn, you had to buy big O'Reilly books and attend boring community college classes for months and months only to be guided through some Hello World bullshit. Today you can watch YouTube while you eat Lucky Charms out of the box in your bathrobe, or have a robot explain it to you like you're 5, and have it be specific to the problem you're solving.
Programming looks like scary asspain on the outside, but if you take the time to grasp a few rules it's incredibly fun and levels the playing field in a lot of ways. The more you can do it yourself, the less you n
