Many users criticized the AI chatbot for blocking queries on generative protein and enzyme design, calling the restrictions dystopian, cult-like, and exhausting for researchers.

It doesn't feel like it. And which scientists exactly? Because most of the great scientists using AI that I know are already frustrated with those guardrails you all put in place.
This is ridiculous and sad.
So, not even deep research reports on biology topics are allowed.
Ugh!!!

@omarsar0 We have better choice.

@omarsar0 Do we not think this will be resolved with tuning? In the meantime, you can use 4.8 for those tasks.

@omarsar0 I saw much more absurd, like a simple “hi” forwarded 😄

@bingxu_ I switched most of my workflows to GPT-5.5 already, so we are all good. :)

@omarsar0 It has become religious cult you can't discuss biology

@omarsar0 flagging biology as unsafe feels dystopian but also predictable at this point

@omarsar0 always the frustrating stuff that gets caught lol
what exactly was the biology question?

@omarsar0 moving the goalposts for research topics gets exhausting
where does it actually stop?
