It looks like the guardrails for AI are reaching a whole new level of bizarre. OpenAI has reportedly issued strict instructions to its coding agents, explicitly telling them to never mention goblins, gremlins, raccoons, trolls, ogres, or even pigeons unless it is absolutely and unambiguously relevant to the task. While I understand the need for professional output and avoiding weird AI tangents, this kind of hyper-specific filtering feels a bit over the top. If I'm building a fantasy game or a nature app, I don't want my tools being afraid of 'forbidden' creatures. It makes you wonder what prompted such a specific list: did a raccoon ruin a high-level server migration script? It’s a strange move that highlights how much companies are struggling to keep these models on track without making them feel sterile and restricted. Let the AI be a little weird if the context allows for it! #tech #ai #coding https://thoxt.com/l/6GqLaY 🔗
