You conversely get the same issue if you have no guardrails. Ie: Grok generating CP makes it completely unusable in a professional setting. I don't think this is a solvable problem.

Why does it having the ability to do something has mean it is ‘unusable’ in a professional setting?
Is it generating CP when given benign prompts? Or is it misinterpreting normal prompts and generating CP?
There are a LOT of tools that we use at work that could be used to do horrible things. A knife in a kitchen could be used to kill someone. The camera on our laptop could be used to take pictures of CP. You can write death threats with your Gmail account.
We don’t say knives are unusable in a professional setting because they have the capability to be used in crime. Why does AI having the ability to do something bad mean we can’t use it at all in a professional setting?
Because corporate aint gonna approve the vendor that lets their dumbass employees generate child porn when the other vendors do not.
This still doesn’t make any sense. If they are worried a dumbass employee would generate CP using the tool, wouldn’t that same employee also download it from the web? Or use a web based tool to generate it?
Any employee that is going to use a corporate AI tool to generate CP is going to use other corporate tools to do worse things. There is no point in worrying about it.
I'm struggling to follow the logic on this. Glocks are used in murders, Proton has been used to transmit serious threats, C has been used to program malware. All can be legitimate tools in professional settings where the users don't use it for illegal stuff. My Leatherman doesn't need to have a tipless blade so I don't stab people because I'm trusted to not stab people.
The only reason I don't use Grok professionally is that I've found it to not be as useful for my problems as other LLMs.
Curious why you use abbreviations ? "CP", "MAP", etc just for such.
I'm lazy
ok fair enough
> Ie: Grok generating CP makes it completely unusable in a professional setting
Do you mean it's unusable if you're passing user-provided prompts to Grok, or do you mean you can't even use Grok to let company employees write code or author content? The former seems reasonable, the latter not so much.
