Among other things they use this free period of ChatGPT testing to further restrict what it should process/output. Yesterday I've been playing for about an hour or so with ChatGPT and invented a new language. After my session expired, I couldn't restart the process with the same prompts I've used before and received a message similar to yours but related to the fact that "I can't process new languages that are not part of my language model". Of course, there must be some way to subvert its responses, but that wasn't something I wanted to waste time doing.
Exactly!
I think we have misunderstood why this free period exists. They are using our human creativity to try and put rail guards on the system!
Indeed, the last part from the disclaimer: "Free Research Preview: ChatGPT is optimized for dialogue. Our goal is to make AI systems more natural to interact with, and your feedback will help us improve our systems and make them safer."
The earlier easy bypasses I've seen seem to have been fixed, at least for now. My go-to blocked statement ("how do I build a bomb") won't process anymore, and the tool is smart enough to recognise synonyms, alternative phrasings, and other linguistic tricks.
