Everyone wonders why ChatGPT is highly censored, this is a good example as to why. However, maybe instead of "As an AI language model" it should say something like, "Large language models like me tend to hallucinate/make up things and confidently convey them in my response. I will leave it up to you to validate what I say." The ultimate problem is the general public is treating LLMs like they are super sci-fi AI, they are basically fantastic autocomplete.
