CANT USE CHATGDP BECAUSE "This prompt may violate our content policy"

I am writing a fictional crime novel, with some mild cussing and situations with gangs.

It literally wont let me post anything, and keeps giving me

“This prompt may violate our content policy”

I have been writing everyday for weeks now, with no issue. Now I cant do anything. Its literally everytime i do a promt now.

Welcome to the community!

That prompt sounds like it would violate the content policy. ChatGPT is designed to be safe and helpful for everyone. It has restrictions put in place to make it safer for more people. OpenAI is constantly updating their application meaning even if it worked earlier they may have implemented a new restriction.

I’m having the same problem and I’m writing a fantasy novel. These restrictions make it pretty much impossible to complete any creative work with realistic characters and situations. I can’t even have Chat read a scene that’s written in the point of view of a PEGASUS without it saying it’s a violation and doing nothing.

If it’s something that OpenAI would agree you should be able to make with an AI, you can post it here as a case:

I am using ChatGPT for a quick summary and improved writing and even asking to include the citations, I receive the message: “This prompt may violate…” Has ChatGPT gone mad? I’m not gonna pay premium if this is n’t resolved

I’ve been using chatgpt almost every day for a long time and today I’m suddenly getting this response to all of my prompts. At first I thought maybe it was a language issue since for this particular prompt I was using Finnish but seems like other people are having issues with English too… What gives??

This surely must be a bug.
I’m asking it to write an email to summarise the reasons I give it for choosing one service provider over another - nothing that can remotely trigger a content violation.
Have never received this message up until now.

I typed out a very long description of my life. My childhood experiences, teenage, and through our. It gave me the same response. How can a writer get better if it won’t let you be honest and free about any situation? I’m using it to better my writing but it seems to be for, or programmed by closed minded individuals. I was late on getting onboard with any AI and this is why.

I faced the same situation in my writing, I was just writing about the villain harming the villagers. I tried asking ChatGPT if it thought Prompt violated content sanity and it responded like this…


I think ChatGPT should be allowed to judge the content on its own

The detection of OpenAI’s content policy violations is based on general words and may not fully grasp the context like an AI, sometimes leading to overly sensitive reactions.

In the example above, it appears to use GPTs, and even the GPTs’ assistant seems to be struggling😅

In such cases, click the thumbs down button to provide feedback on the content policy violation and express your own opinion.

Now, there are various options available, including ‘This didn’t violate the policy’ and ‘I disagree with the policy’, among others.

You can choose one to send your feedback😀

I am lost! How do I write my sci-fi horror novel (extremely bloodthirsty and violent) with the help of ChatGPT? Without constantly being flagged about ‘user violation.’ There must have been hundreds of Zombie horror novels, with similar content as mine that have been passed and are now published.

There’s also must have been countless porn movies published, but that justification of prior art is unlikely to convince the makers of SORA…

The best you can do is continue to downvote those that they’d agree should be allowed through the moderator… until the banhammer comes…

You’ll have to try elsewhere if you prompt enough so that the humans and zombies don’t resolve their differences and celebrate peace…
