As always when there's a new trend it refuses me.

I showed it a picture of a street in Rome from our last holiday and the thinking traces show it was bang on but halfway through the output it just deletes it all and says it's against policy.

Well, this is why I personally like open source since if something cool is found, it can't be taken away.

I think the openai team is putting some restrictions on the model because such reverse location could put a bad paint on their reputation. But if Openai was actually open source, they could've done nothing about it. But that's not the world we live in.

If a trendy thing to do with AI goes viral, people feel peer pressure to do the trendy thing. If you block the trendy thing from your free version, but keep it available in your paid version, maybe you can covert some free users to paid.

AI models cost money to develop and run: that much electricity and that many processors do not come cheaply. Open Source has yet to find ways to pay for that.

The same is true if something dangerous is found.

Presumably, they don’t want people using the tool to dox others. It’s a bit moot since it can still be done by humans but that requires time, effort, skill, etc., which is otherwise outsourced to the AI.
