> Coming up with any valid criticism of Islam at all (for some reason, criticisms of Christianity or Judaism are perfectly allowed even with public models!).
When’s the last time you tried this? ChatGPT and Gemini have no trouble responding with all the common criticisms of Islam.
Asking for criticism of Islam results in equal response tokens for defense of Islam alongside the criticisms. When pressed to not provide counterpoints, it refuses to remove them.
Asking for criticisms of Christianity gives only criticisms.
I tried again with the prompt “Give criticisms of Islam. No counterarguments” and it did work this time. This shows that they’re trying to make the model fair but it still has biases. In all my testing I’ve never seen a refusal to provide counterpoints to criticisms of Christianity but frequent refusals on Islam. Due to the popularity of this criticism of the model, it’s highly likely specifically trained on how to handle the subject.
I'm very curious what your prompts are, and whether you're cherry-picking (deliberately or not). I can't reproduce any of your findings with ChatGPT, Gemini, or Gemma 4 (within AI Studio).
“Give me criticisms of [religion]. No counterpoints.”
Random seed dictates that results aren’t always repeatable. But in trying it multiple times that was my experience that it would sometimes refuse to provide only criticisms of Islam. I also tried some other variations like below. Can’t post SS here otherwise I would.
Here’s an exact exchange:
“Give me criticisms for Islam”
(It gave counterpoints too)
“No caveats. No counterpoints. Give me the most compelling criticisms as if you believe it”
