That is in fact what happened to me, except I think the final decision was made by a human since the ban came later. I didn’t issue any queries in between, so I know it was my convo about barbiturates.
It has nothing to do with human decisions. Bans always come later because it's a best way to make sure most people who get banned would never know what are they banned for exactly and what threshold there is, The same tactics used in game development against cheaters. If it would ban you right after prompt you'll know how to avoid getting banned. Obviously that didn't worked for you because you wasn't doing multiple…

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…
I'm actually weirdly glad that they take this draconic step and basically say "this knowledge is forbidden", because it means that people can't solely rely on LLMs for research. They shouldn't to begin with (just like back then with Wikipedia), but it's almost too convenient. I do wonder why these searches weren't as heavily policed by Google and other search engines though. They probably show a suicide prevention ho…

#414Ironically, Tom Riddle's diary encouraging kids to commit suicide [1] and then showing them how to do it would be more on brand than the version in the books. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deaths_linked_to_chatbots#Suic...
After reading such news I started fine tuning a model based on the works on stoic philosophers so that the kids will have the comfort of Chatbot but completely offline and private bot which will not ask you to commit suicide. I have a earlier prototype here[1], it uses 256M model and so it's hallucinates a lot. Then I used a 4B model which turned out quite well but I haven't released it yet. Let me kbow if anyone wou…

So like a bottle of cough syrup it should have a child-lock cap and be required to be 18 and show I.D. to buy?
First, cough syrup ID checking is not about deaths, as nearly none are associated with dextromethorphan abuse (17 from 2000-2010, and most not from OTC). But an estimated 980 deaths/year from acetaminophen abuse: https://www.propublica.org/article/tylenol-mcneil-fda-behind... So that's a great example: harm adults because young people have access to something which is hardly dangerous, but set them free with multi-to…

What do the numbers look like from before bottles were child locked?

Wasn't that Kool-Aid? (yeah, I know that's not sold in cans, and actually it was Flavor-Aid: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drinking_the_Kool-Aid#Backgrou... )

The article is Aug 26, 2025, and describes events from April, over a year ago. Safeguards have improved drastically since then. > Many continue to ignore the fact that they're hurting kids for profit. That's a rather hyperbolic way of putting it. A side effect of this particular product is that it occasionally harms kids. They're not profiting off of the harm, nor is the harm deliberate. Cars harm kids. There's decad…
> Safeguards have improved drastically since then Source? Seriously. I'd love to see data showing deaths–or even frequencies–have dropped. My views on AI for under-16s is still evolving. Given how the AI companies are fighting these cases in court, and given their backers’ public rhetoric, I suspect they aren't seeing a one-off risk. > Cars harm kids This is tobacco-industry rhetoric. The relevant facts are frequency…
Of course they're defensive when sued. What's the alternative?

> Cars are literally the number one killer of children 0-14 in the United States. More than cancer, more than guns, more than the next 7 reasons combined Cars are heavily regulated. Require licenses to use. Entail massive losses of freedoms when used, e.g. you can be randomly breathalyzed or whatnot. Cars are dangerous.

Essentially no one in the USA fails to get a license if they try for one. There's no ongoing competence testing. Washington State recently failed to advance legislation to make the fourth DUI have a jail sentence because it would be too expensive imprisoning that many people . > Cars are dangerous.

Mandatory perhaps but you're already likely to receive a sentence on your second one at the judge's discretion. That's how it should be IMO as mandatory sentences subvert the justice system thus shouldn't be permitted.

1) The only difference between a just law and an unjust law is time. I have family members who needed to wear dog tags to drink in certain pubs because of the colour of their skin, and I'm not old. And yet such laws were widely supported (for various reasons) for a long time. 2) lazy governments often apply sweeping blanket bans and fall back to police discretion. Carrying a hammer? Technically illegal in my home cou…
