I'm not sure what it says about me that the first thought I had when I heard about the "david meyer" chatgpt kerfuffle, was "woah, that would be so easy to weaponize!" And it is! Because OpenAI chose to go with the cheapest option: blocking the offending term through an asynchronous, case insensitive exact match against a deny list, and doing it asynchronously to ensure it doesn’t impact latency.
