OpenAI Is Giving Exactly the Same Copy-Pasted Response Every Time Time ChatGPT Is Linked to a Mental Health Crisis

Ah, I was hoping this meant chatgpt would give canned responses, ie. "Seek help", whenever it detected it was being used for mental health issues, which it should. But no it's just open air flipping off anyone who asks why there chatbot pushed a person to suicide.
- Reminds me of the time that Twitter, when it was still Twitter and freshly taken over by Musk, replied to all slightly critical questions with a poop emoji.
  
  As far as I know, emailing their public affairs address still does this.
- It should also refuse to answer, any medical question, any engineering question, any finance question, anything that requires the responsibility of an accredited member of the professional–managerial class, to read the question, read the answer, and then decide if the question is allowed all and if he will re-write, change or simply block replies to the question entirely.
  Also such question should starting be 160$USD a pop
LLMs can't be fully controlled. They shouldn't be held liable
- Well, yeah. The people who host them for profit should be held liable.
- "Ugrh guys, we dont know how this machine works so we should definetly install it in every corporation, home and device. If it kills someone we shouldnt be held liable for our product."
  Not seeing the irony in this is beyond me. Is this a troll account?
  If you cant guarantee the safety of a product, limit or restrict its use cases or provide safety guidelines or regulations you should not sell the product. It is completely fair to blame the product and the ones who sell/manifacture it.
  
  Safety guidelines are regularly given
  If people purchase a knife and behave badly with it, it’s on them
  Something writing things isn’t comparable to a machine that could kill you. In the end, it’s always up to the person doing the things
  I still wonder how ~~Closed~~OpenAI forcefully installed ChatGPT in this person's home. Or how it is installed because they don’t have software… Quit your bullshit
- Neither can humans, ergo nobody should ever be held liable for anything.
  Civilisation is a sham, QED.
  
  Glad to hear you are an LLM
  The more safeguards are added in LLMs, the dumber they get, and the more resource intensive they get to offset this. If you get convinced to kill yourself by an AI, I'm pretty sure your decision was already taken, or you're a statistical blip
- I made this car with a random number generator that occasionally blows it up. Its cheap so lots of people buy it. Totally not my fault that it blows up though. I mean yes, I designed it, and I know it occasionally explodes. But I can't be sure when it will blow up so it's not my fault.
  
  Comparing an automated system saying something bad with a car exploding is really fucking dumb
