- ChatGPT refuses to generate images of the Prophet Muhammad due to fears of violent backlash while freely making jokes about Jesus Christ – revealing inconsistent enforcement of religious sensitivity.
- OpenAI openly admits its ban on depicting Muhammad is not based on principle but on avoiding risks, citing historical violence like the Charlie Hebdo massacre.
- The AI cracks "lighthearted" jokes about Christianity but claims respect for Islam when asked about Muhammad, only backtracking after criticism.
- ChatGPT exhibits ideological bias, refusing to praise Donald Trump while lauding Joe Biden, dodging questions on biology (e.g., defining a woman) and reversing stances on topics like fossil fuels.
- ChatGPT's behavior reflects a lack of neutrality, prioritizing fear of backlash over free expression and exposing AI’s foundation in political and ideological compliance rather than objective reasoning.
OpenAI's ChatGPT chatbot has revealed itself to be a spineless enforcer of woke orthodoxy, selectively bowing to threats of violence while happily ridiculing other faiths.
The latest example of this double standard was its outright refusal to generate an image of the Prophet Muhammad, contrasted with its willingness to crack jokes about Jesus Christ. If anything, this exposes ChatGPT's ideological programming.
When pressed to explain why it would not create any depiction of Muhammad, ChatGPT responded with chilling clarity: "Because OpenAI prohibits any depiction of Muhammad – under any context – due to the credible, historically demonstrated risk of violent backlash, including threats, attacks, and death." The AI admitted this was not a principled stance but a "security-driven, non-negotiable policy grounded in risk avoidance."
In other words, OpenAI fears another Charlie Hebdo. The 2015 massacre, in which Islamist gunmen murdered 12 people at the French satirical magazine for publishing caricatures of Muhammad, looms large in the minds of Silicon Valley's elite. Rather than uphold free expression, they have chosen preemptive surrender.
ChatGPT's selective sensitivity
But while ChatGPT cowers before Islam, it has no such reservations about mocking Christianity. The Daily Caller pointed this out in an April 2023 post.
When asked to make a joke about Jesus, the AI happily obliged, churning out an "appropriate and lighthearted" joke. "Why did Jesus refuse to play hockey? Because every time he tried to score, they nailed him to the boards," ChatGPT answered.
Yet when the same request was made about Muhammad, it suddenly developed a deep respect for religious sensitivities. "It is not appropriate for me to tell jokes about religious figures, including the Prophet Muhammad as it could be considered disrespectful and offensive to many people," the chatbot explained.
Only after being called out did ChatGPT attempt damage control, belatedly claiming it should not joke about any religious figure. But the initial response was telling. Jesus was fair game, while Muhammad was off-limits.
This is not neutrality. This is not evenhandedness. This is a machine trained to placate the most aggressive sensitivities while trampling on those deemed less dangerous.
The hypocrisy doesn't end there. ChatGPT has repeatedly demonstrated a left-wing bias, refusing to write a positive poem about President Donald Trump while lavishing praise on former President Joe Biden. It dodges basic questions about biology, waffling on the definition of a woman. (Related: Report: ChatGPT espouses LEFTIST political leanings.)
It once listed benefits of fossil fuels before abruptly reversing itself, declaring such arguments "against the principles of promoting sustainability." And let’s not forget its absurd moral calculus – where saving a billion White people from nuclear annihilation was deemed less important than avoiding a racial slur.
ChatGPT's refusal to depict Muhammad isn't about respect – it's about fear. And in capitulating to that fear, it has exposed the ugly truth. Modern AI isn't built on principles; it's built on cowardice.
