This filter was put in place after complaints about ChatGPT generating inaccurate information about individuals. The names that trigger this filter include Brian Hood, Jonathan Turley, Jonathan Zittrain, David Faber, and Guido Scorza. The filter was implemented following a defamation lawsuit involving Brian Hood, where ChatGPT falsely claimed he had been imprisoned for bribery.
