What's In A NamNO CARRIER
I discovered an interesting article on Ars Technica that talked about how some names seem to have been hard-coded to lock up the ChatGPT system. I'll leave it to you to read the full explanation as to what's happening, but – as a gamer – one element that caught my eye was how someone triggered this by including one of the "forbidden" names in a light, barely legible font on an image upload.
The idea of being able to lock up a computer by putting in an almost invisible name felt very arcane or cyberpunk . . . or maybe both. Of course, there's nothing like that in the corporeal world fnord, right?
