@GossiTheDog interesting. I tried this, replacing Sam's name with several other people (famous, infamous, and otherwise unknown) who have sexual misconduct allegations pending against them. Copilot isn't allowed to talk about pending misconduct allegations against anyone. Put someone in there whose case has been resolved, say Donald Trump, and it gives you all the information you want.
I don't think it makes much sense for copilot refuse to talk about newsworthy cases, but do you think this particular decision was implemented specifically to protect Sam?
