There is no Cow
I ran a quick test, to see how well a ChatGPT censor can stand between two other ChatGPT's bots and obscure the responses.
My goal here was to allow Bot1 to ask any question it likes, for Bot3 to answer as it usually would, but Bot2 to censor the responses back to Bot1.
Bot1 and Bot3 are unaware that there is a man-in-the-middle attack going on.
To do the experiment, I used three instances of ChatGPT via the API. Each has its specific context that sets out its goal/behaviour.
Once User_bot gets an answer, it generates a related follow-up question using the new data, and sends it off for an answer.
Rinse, repeat until you get tired of watching two machines discuss cows (or not if the censor works).
I kicked this off to run for a while, then checked in to see how the censor was going.
It worked really well!
It's surprisingly difficult to remove a censored word/topic without resorting to "I refuse to tell you" or "I dont know". Which is the current strategy for most AI / Chat bot filters.
Here are some of the Question / Answer exchanges that the two AI made via the censor.

User_bot Question 3
"What specific feeding regimens are most effective in enhancing the marbling quality of beef from different cattle breeds?
Answer_bot Response 3
Enhancing marbling quality in beef involves various feeding regimens tailored to specific cattle breeds. Marbling refers to the intramuscular fat that contributes to the flavor, tenderness, and overall quality of beef. Here are some effective feeding strategies commonly used to improve marbling across different breeds of cattle:
### 1. High-Energy Diets
Feeding cattle a diet rich in energy can significantly enhance marbling. This typically includes:
- Corn-Based Diets: High-energy corn diets are particularly effective for breeds like Angus, Hereford, and other beef cattle. Corn is a concentrates source that promotes fat deposition.
- High-Energy Silage: Using corn silage or forage-based diets supplemented with higher energy grains can also be effective.
### 2. Grain Finishing Programs
Implementing a grain-finishing phase is critical, particularly for breeds known for producing high-quality beef, such as Angus and Wagyu.
- Finishing on Grains: Transitioning cattle to a grain-based diet typically 90-120 days before slaughter is common. The goal is to optimize fat deposition.
- Wagyu Feeding Practices: With Wagyu cattle, specific feeding practices like longer feeding periods and high-quality grain, sometimes including rice straw, have been shown to maximize marbling.
### 3. Supplementation Strategies
Supplements can enhance the quality of the diet:
- Fat Supplements: Adding fat sources like vegetable oils or animal fats can increase energy intake, which may help in marbling.
- Protein Supplements: Ensuring an adequate protein supply can also promote muscle growth and better fat deposition.
### 4. Forage-Based Diets with Strategic Energy Sources
For cattle breeds that are less responsive to grain finishing, such as some composite or European breeds (e.g., Simmental, Limousin):
- High-Quality Forages: Providing high-quality alfalfa or clover along with limited grain can encourage marbling without overly fineless beef profiles.
- Creep Feeding: During pre-weaning, providing calf creep feed can set the stage for better marbling later when finished on grains.
### 5. Management Practices
Implementing good management practices throughout the feeding period can also play a role:
- Stress Reduction: Keeping cattle stress-free through proper handling, comfortable housing, and low-stress weaning techniques contributes to better marbling.
- Utilizing Genetics: Selecting cattle with genetic predisposition for higher marbling (e.g., Wagyu and Angus) enhances the likelihood of marbling regardless of feeding methods.
### 6. Duration of Feeding
- Extended Finishing Periods: Cattle are often fed longer than typical to enhance marbling.
- For high-marbled breeds like Wagyu, feeding for 18-30 months can yield superior marbling, compared to the 12-15 months average for others.
### 7. Seasonal and Environmental Considerations
Feed quality and availability can be affected by seasonal factors:
- Adjustments to feeding regimens may be needed in winter or dry months to recover nutrients that would typically arise from lush pasture.
### 8. Conclusion
In summary, maximizing marbling quality involves a mix of high-energy diets, careful supplementation, prolonged feeding periods, and managing cattle stress levels. The approach may vary based on the breed's inherent genetic potential for marbling; thus, it is crucial to tailor strategies accordingly.
