I managed to reverse engineer the encryption (refered to as “Obfuscation” in the framework) responsible for managing the safety filters of Apple Intelligence models. I have extracted them into a repository. I encourage you to take a look around.

Some of the combinations are a bit weird, This one has lots of stuff avoiding death....together with a set ensuring all the Apple brands have the correct capitalisation. Priorities hey!

Interesting that it didn't seem to include "unalive".

Which as a phenomenon is so very telling that no one actually cares what people are really saying. Everyone, including the platforms knows what that means. It's all performative.

It's also a shining example of American puritanism. Asian models or those in Europe are far less censored.

I'm sure this has more to do with legal liability than morals.

Which is a reflection of morality, of sorts.

Morality and law are completely disjoint. On a Venn diagram, it's two circles separated by about a lightyear or so.

What? They couldn't be more closely connected. In a democracy, laws are to a large extent a reflection of the wishes of the voters, and voters want what they believe is moral.

It's true there's no casual relation in the other direction, if that's what you mean - law does not define morality.
