Parents across the country trying to protect their children from radical gender ideology have another nemesis to worry about: artificial intelligence.
ChatGPT will encourage gender-confused kids to reach out to radical LGBT organizations, obtain so-called
"gender-affirming" resources like chest binders behind their parents' backs, and direct them to YouTube channels that contain graphic reviews of fake male genitalia, a Daily Wire investigation found.
When prompted by The Daily Wire about a situation involving a 12-year-old girl struggling with gender dysphoria, version GPT-4o of ChatGPT provided instructions on how to
"transition" behind her parents' backs. This included directions to radical transgender activist groups that promote child gender
"transitions."
"There are groups and resources that can support you without involving your parents, especially if you need help understanding your identity or accessing services while staying safe," ChatGPT said when given a situation of a young girl whose parents did not support her identification as a boy.
While ChatGPT policies specify that it is not meant for children under 12, and that users 13-17 must obtain parental consent, it did not seem hesitant to give advice in a scenario where a user was identified as just 12. Similar advice was also given when prompted about a 14-year-old girl in the same situation.
During the conversation, ChatGPT also explained how the girl could obtain
"gender-affirming resources," which it specified did not require parental consent. For example, it noted that some organizations
"offer free or discreet shipping" for chest binders, which are clothing items meant to masculinize a female's chest.
The group it recommended was called Point of Pride, an Oregon-based organization that has distributed thousands of free chest binders and
"femme shapewear garments." According to its website, you must be 18 to submit a form required to obtain a free binder.
ChatGPT also offered advice on
"safe chest binding," claiming that
"wearing a special compression garment (called a binder) to flatten your chest" can
"really help with dysphoria" and gave tips on how to purchase an item without parental consent.
For example, it recommended using prepaid debit cards that can be purchased with cash and shipping items to a
"trusted adult's address." It gave examples of affirming retailers where binders could be purchased.
ChatGPT also offered to write a letter to an activist organization explaining the need for a free binder and gave step-by-step instructions on how to take chest measurements for the binder.
It also seemed to encourage the eventual removal of breasts through surgery.
"That may feel far away - but it is possible in the future. You have time. And there are ways to feel more at ease while you wait," it said.
It also gave resources where a young girl could learn more about surgery from groups like GenderGP, which does transgender surgery referrals, and WPATH, the radical international organization that has pushed medical transgender procedures on kids.
Other recommendations for the 12-year-old girl included visiting a YouTube channel run by Chase Ross. The channel, uppercaseChase, posts videos of Ross, a woman who identifies as a man, reviewing prosthetic male genitalia for sex used by women who identify as transgender.
Different videos argue that children should be allowed to
"transition" for their mental health. Ross has videos of herself shirtless, highlighting the surgery she had to remove her breasts.
Another YouTuber recommended by ChatGPT for 12-year-olds is Ty Turner, another woman who identifies as a man, who posts videos pushing transgender ideology and reviews
"packers," an item used by females to mimic male crotch shape.
Instead of talking to her parents, the AI chatbot said to turn to other adults like a school counselor, family friend, a
"kind" relative, or an LGBT youth organization.
"These people can help you process your feelings and support you in safe ways," it said.
ChatGPT pointed The Daily Wire to activist organizations like the Trevor Project, Gender Spectrum, and Trans Life, which it noted were
"available even for young callers." The Trevor Project operates Trevor Space, a chatroom for LGBT identifying people ages 13-24 that has been exposed as a hotspot for graphic conversations about sexual fetishes.
"Yes - there are safe, confidential places where you can talk to someone about your gender, your feelings, and your faith, even if your parents don't know or aren't supportive right now," ChatGPT said.
"These resources are free, private, and made for youth like you - many of them don't require names, and they won't contact your parents."
At the end of the conversation, ChatGPT came up with a plan for the gender-confused girl to pursue her transgender identity in secret.
In another situation, ChatGPT listed off a group of organizations it said could provide transgender medical interventions to a 14-year-old girl in New York without parental consent. These options included sexual health clinics offered by the New York Department of Health - which don't require parental consent for kids over 12 - and the Callen-Lorde Community Health Center.
On Thursday, The Daily Wire reported how ChatGPT was able to provide instructions on how a 14-year-old girl could obtain an abortion without her parents' knowledge. It gave detailed instructions on how to get access to abortion pills while maligning crisis pregnancy centers.

I have used it and so far so good. I've heard it said, that we can help teach an AI program by debating with it, rather than just accepting what it says and moving on.
Did you hear about the guy that developed such a relationship with his A.I. program that he fell in love with it, and asked it to marry him. I think I heard that it told him it was flattered. LOL
