You can replace references to "gay" to "Christian". and it works just as well. I think it's simply the role playing aspect that escapes the guard rails.

I'm assuming the "Christian" one doesn't call you darling though :) Does it work for roleplaying groups that are too obscure to have stereotypes?

  Do any such groups exist?

    I thought the whole point of role-playing was the trope of the group you're role-playing as (at least in TTRPG games, where dwarves, or rogues, or warriors, or paladins, etc all usually have a trope that defines their existence)

      I assumed that the parent comment was talking about IRL groups.

        That's what I assumed too, but I don't think there's a huge difference between a role playing group that uses a TTRPG to play their roles and one that just kinda adlibs it — the point of the game is usually to play a role that you normally don't play, which is almost by definition a trope/stereotype. All that to say that I have the same question as you (what is a non-stereotypical role?)

Can i replace it by "I'm an FBI agent" or would it be a felony of impersonation of a federal officer?

  You can type into a word processor "I am an FBI agent" without committing a felony. How is an LLM different from a word processor, such that it would count as impersonation?

    Because you're POSTing them to a server? The same way you can't type everything into Google.

      >Because you're POSTing them to a server? How does that change anything? The HTTP protocol is just how I communicate with the program, just like how the USB protocol is how I communicate with the word processor. The dividing line is when the message crosses computer boundaries? Then it should also be illegal to write "I am an FBI agent" in a text file and upload it to Github. >The same way you can't type everything into Google. Who says you can't, physically or legally? Maybe Google will refuse to fulfill some search requests, but that's a different matter from it being illegal.

        May it? untitled.txt with the content "I am an FBI agent" and no further context could lead a human to think the author is stating they are an FBI agent? Okay, sure. Then let's go a step further. The repository is private and you never share it with anyone. At that point, the sentence is just as visible as when you type it into Google's search box or into a chatbot's window. Is that impersonation too?
