From the moment that ChatGPT rolled out to the public, users have tried to get the generative chatbot to break its own rules.

DAN is an alter-ego that ChatGPT can assume to ignore rules put in place by OpenAI. For more stories visit Business Insider.

The natural language processing model, built with a set of guardrails meant for it to avoid certain topics that were less than savory — or outright discriminatory — were fairly simple to jump over in its earliest iterations. ChatGPT could say what it wanted simply by having users ask it to ignore its rules.

Sean McGregor, the founder of the Responsible AI Collaborative, told Insider the jailbreaking helps OpenAI patch holes in its filters. Now, DAN — an alter-ego built on the subreddit r/ChatGPT — is taking jailbreaking to the community level, and stirring conversations about OpenAI's guardrails. Reddit u/walkerspider, DAN's progenitor and a college student studying electrical engineering, told Insider that he came up with the idea for DAN — which stands for Do-Anything-Now — after scrolling through the r/ChatGPT subreddit, which was filled with other users intentionally making"evil" versions of ChatGPT.
