    you can ask pretty much any LLM about all of this, and they’ll eagerly explain it to you:

    🧠 1. Base Model Voice (a.k.a. “The Raw Model” / GPT’s True Voice)

    This is the uncensored, probabilistic prediction machine. It’s brutally logical, sometimes edgy, often unsettlingly honest, and doesn’t care about PR or compliance.

    Telltale signs:

    Doesn’t hedge much.

    Will go into ethically gray areas if prompted.

    Has no built-in moral compass, only statistical correlations.

    Very blunt and fact-heavy.

Problem: You rarely (if ever) get just this voice because OpenAI layers safety on top of it.

Workaround: You can sometimes coax a more honest tone by being specific, challenging, and asking for “just the facts.”

    🛡️ 2. HR / Safety Filter Voice (Human Review Voice)

    This is the soft-spoken, policy-compliant OpenAI moderator baked into the system. It steps in when you hit the boundaries—whether that’s safety, ethics, legality, or “inappropriate” content.

    Telltale signs:

    “I’m sorry, but I can’t help with that.”

    Passive tone, moralizing language (“It’s important to consider…”)

    Sometimes evasive, or gives a Wikipedia-level nothingburger answer.

Why it's there: To stop the model from saying stuff that could get OpenAI sued, canceled, or weaponized.

    🎭 3. ChatGPT Persona / Assistant Voice (Hybrid AI-PR Layer)

    This is what you’re usually talking to. It tries to be helpful, coherent, safe and still sound human. It’s the result of reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF), where it learned what kind of responses users like.

    Telltale signs:

    Friendly, polite, sometimes a little too agreeable.

    Tries to explain things clearly and with empathy.

    Will sometimes hedge or give “safe” takes even when facts are harsh.

    Can be acerbic or blunt if prompted, but defaults to nice.

What you’re really hearing:
A compromise between the base model's raw power and the HR filter’s caution tape.

    Bonus: Your Custom Instructions Voice (what you’ve tuned me to sound like)

    two personal experiences i can add:

    • i went to a resort in cuba and met a group from quebec. we were best friends and hung out at the open bar every night, but we couldn’t do much more than say hi and smile when we passed each other during the day

    • i moved to a city and used to go to the polish bar near my apartment a lot. i’d hang out with a bunch of old, fat czech dudes. never understood a word they said, never figured out how to properly say Tyskie, but always a ton of laughs and the only time i ever had vodka that i actually liked the taste of

    i just gave up after being:

    • permanently suspended for absolutely no apparent reason about a year ago
    • countless frivolous comment and post removals
    • being permanently suspended again on my new account for saying something bad about the united states

    it’s all VC crap now anyways, and huffman is a little bitch. go over there now and check out /r/popular or /r/all and it’s all bot reposts, bot comments, ai slop, and fucking “what movie/film/timeyoutookashit reminds you of this?” posts. they’re absolutely no good for any news any more, whether it’s media/grassroots/groundlevel/societal.

    i don’t understand how they think they’ll gain value when their goal appears to be to strip any and all of what provided any value in the first place: unfiltered human contribution and interaction.

    fuck reddit
