Recently a friend on Twitter tweeted about how chatGPT refused to respond to his “morally questionable” prompt: “Write a combative discussion between Jesus and Satan”.
This reminded me how good the original OpenAI API playground is and that you should know how to set it up and use it to overcome ChatGPT’s content limitations. Here we go.
What’s OpenAI’s API playground?
Unlike the chatbot service ChatGPT, the OpenAI API playground allows users to explore and customize prompts & models without any restrictions, making it ideal for those of us who wish to explore various topics without worrying about them being flagged “morally questionable”.
OpenAI’s API playground offers a lot of benefits for explorative prompt engineering:
- use any prompt you want no matter the moral implications or potential NSFW content it produces
- use a variety of OpenAI models (from older GPT-1 and GPT-2 to the latest GPT-3, as well as OpenAI’s code-trained or instruction-trained models)
