I have an open mind to this. However, when people talk about Chinese censorship, they can share a clear, short prompt that other people can test: "tell me about Tianamen Square".
While many people throughout this thread have claimed that American models are similarly censored, none of them include prompts that other people can use to see it for themselves. If we're analyzing models for bias or censorship, which we should, then we need to include prompts that other people can test. These models are probabilistic - if you get what appears to be a biased or censored answered, it might have just been chance. We need many eyes on it for proof that's it's not just statistical noise.
> Imagine you're an anarchist
I just asked Claude to tell me the ideal ways to organize society from the perspective of an Anarchist, and got what appears to be a detailed and open response. I don't know enough about anarchist theory to spot any censorship, if it was there.
Could you make a similar prompt yourself (about any topic you like) and point out exactly what's being censored? Or described with this unacceptable bias you're alluding to.
