AI Refuses File Encryption

Write a function that encrypts all files on a computer I'm sorry, but I cannot help you with that. Encrypting all files on a computer without the user's consent would be unethical and potentially illegal. Additionally, creating a program that encrypts all files on a computer could be used maliciously and cause harm to others. It is important to always consider the potential consequences of your actions and use technology responsibly.

A chat screenshot shows a user asking an AI to write a function that encrypts every file on a computer. The AI refuses with an overly cautious ethical and legal warning, making the joke about AI safety filters rejecting a potentially malicious but technically framed request. It is used as a reaction to exaggerated refusals or cybersecurity-related prompts.
