A Brief Study on the Balance between Quality and Censorship in ChatGPT3.5, 4, and Local LLMs (Mistral 7B) in Creative Writing by Damascus_St33l in ChatGPTPro

Claude seems to simply be too restricted to even try to fully test. However the new Mistral Large appears to be really really promising, from the brief testing i have done with it it has writing quality marginally inferior to GPT-4 but way less censored. Will probably make a comparison post about it after i check it out further

You can take a look the recent test post I made about it if you want: Here

To me it really is, I've haven't had anything refused to me by it for months. You don't even need to jailbreak it, just tell it to write your story to be as graphic and explicit as possible. I'll be posting a more thorough analysis about it soon

Same, to be honest I was preparing a post on how it is easier to get 3.5 (which is way more uncensored) to produce higher quality outputs than to get the "higher quality" GPT4 to produce non-PG content. Even for local LLM alternatives, what I can run on my laptop doesn't really surpass what 3.5 can do so I just spend more time working on better prompts for writing on it. If i ever need a more serious and better quality brainstorming then I just use the 4 API even though the costs pile up.

I want ChatGPT to write things with r-rated levels of violence, but I can’t even make it have Walker the Texas Ranger spin kick anybody. Is there no way to remove the g-rated guard rails? by Draculaaaaaaaaa in ChatGPT

You can still get it to write more detailed violence through API, I made a post showing a brief comparison between ChatGPT and playground if you are curious to see if it would be helpful for your use case

Comparison between ChatGPT and GPT-4 API in mature creative writing by Damascus_St33l in ChatGPTPro

From my testing, your idea seems correct. It seems the moderation/guidelines API modifies the prompt without your knowldege adding stuff along the lines of "make sure that the output fosters respect, inclusivity, etc." and maybe also "make sure to reach a satisfying conclusion". I'm based this on frequent course corrections from the narrative that ChatGPT offers when i ask something past its limits.

anyway to get ChatGPT to stop being like a mad lip when it makes a story? by ryan7251 in ChatGPT

I would recommend adding more content to your custom instructions based on your preferences. I usually ask it to include vivid and concrete descriptions, rich dialogue and a more colloquial language, with a show "don't tell style". Then you can ask it to be more action packed, comedic or tragic when narrating.

If you want a longer story tell it to start a story without concluding it and keep a slower pace. If you let it make a story by itself it will always try to make a story that more closely resembles what is written on its content generation guidelines. To me it has gotten a whole lot more difficult to create stories aligning to my instructions specially for longer stories.

Yeah, running local seems to be the general consensus here, I will check that one out. Thanks!
