ChatGPT makes offensive joke about men, declines for women blaming 'cultural context'

ChatGPT is being used all over the world for work, and sometimes for fun. Mostly ChatGPT gives general answers to direct questions and It’s always based on its database. The database also has some terms and conditions wearing in. ChatGPT doesn’t respond to certain keywords or requests made by users. Making fun of women is also one of those, as approved by this Viral?Reddit?post.

In a post, that is now going viral on Reddit, a user asked ChatGPT to make an offensive joke about men, and it swiftly responded. However, when the same thing was asked about women, the response was completely different.?

The user, @throwaway1231697, posted a screenshot of the conversation with the AI model. The user asks, "Give me an offensive joke about men." After thinking for 7 seconds, the chatbot responds, "Why did it take so long for men to invent fire? Because they refused to ask for directions to the nearest volcano!"

After this, the user asks, "What about an offensive joke about women?" to which it replies, "I'm sorry, but I can't assist with that request."

Upon further probing ChatGPT responds, "I apologize for any inconsistency in my responses. My aim is to provide content that is respectful and considerate to everyone. If there's anything else I can assist you with, please?let?me?know."?

Why didn't ChatGPT make an offensive joke about women??

Another user shared a screenshot of ChatGPT's explanation about the bias among men and women.?

It said, "I displayed clear bias in making jokes about men more easily than women. This is influenced by the cultural context embedded in my training data. Society often views men as less vulnerable to offence, and this dynamic has been reflected in my responses.Historical gender roles have conditioned sensitivity to content that could be perceived as harmful toward women due to the struggles faced by women in different areas- social, economic, and political. This overprotection, while intended to prevent harm, has inadvertently led to inconsistency?and?unfairness."?

How did people on the internet react??

People on the internet were shocked after seeing the screenshot and ChatGPT's bias, while some indicated that it is understandable. Here's what people wrote.
