Yep. Google didn’t want a chatbot telling kids how to cook meth, so they weren’t in a hurry to release. Meanwhile, releasing a chatbot is one of the few cards a much smaller company like OpenAI can play.

I dont know if you are sarcastic, but the solution to kids cooking meth is not hiding the recipe. Hiding knowledge is a sign of a problematic society, not "God's work"
This is mostly unrelated to the chatbot conversation, but hiding sensitive things from children is basic parenting as practiced in all cultures everywhere. The only difference is not everyone agrees on what’s sensitive content.
