Thanks for pointing that out! I'm not in the US and I guess it's not illegal in China (given that Deepseek was more than happy to do it).

That does raise an interesting question, what kind of laws should LLMs (attempt to) follow? It's easy enough to spoof the country in the system prompt. I wonder how ChatGPT would respond if I told it I was located in a developing country without any piracy laws.

I think being able to align your text generators with a specific set of laws, speech codes, tonality, etc. is very useful. However, all of this should be a user choice.

Your spell checker does not stop checking your spelling just because you are describing a murder scene either.

Safety slop and boilerplating should be configurable as well.
