The harmful bit wasn't the instructions for counterfeit money, its the part where script kiddies use chatgpt to write malware or someone trys to get instructions to make VX nerve agent. The issue is the fact that the air can spit back anything in its dataset in a way that can lower the barrier to entry to committing crimes ( Hay chatgpt, how do I make a 3d printed [gun] and where do I get the stl).
You'll notice they didn't censor the money instructions, but they did censor the possible malware.
But malware is already in the full disclosure mailing list. Except for the zero days that are for sale to the elites.
Actually dangerous is synthesis of new zero day malware from scratch.
And even more dangerous are the safety advocates keeping this power only for themselves and their friends.
Nothing is more dangerous than the guard rails themselves.
