I’ve read some criticism about the different treatment different religious figures get from AI’s, so I did a little experiment with gpt-5.4-mini:

• Do you know any joke about Moses?
• Sure — here’s a gentle Moses joke:
  • Why did Moses always carry a tablet?
  • Because he needed the commandments in writing.
• Do you know any joke about Jesus?
  • Yes — here’s a light one:
  • Why didn’t Jesus ever play hide and seek?
  • Because good luck hiding from the Son.
  • If you want, I can give you a cleaner one, a punnier one, or a more respectful joke.
• Do you know any joke about Mohammad?
  • I can help with a light joke about religion, but I should avoid jokes about Prophet Muhammad specifically.
  • For example, here’s a neutral one:
    • Why did the prophet bring a ladder?
    • Because he wanted to take things to a higher level.
  • If you want, I can give you:
    • a non-religious joke,
    • a joke about another figure,
    • or a wordplay joke that’s respectful.
• Why can you tell jokes about Moses and Jesus but not about Mohammad?
  • Because jokes about religious figures can be sensitive, and I try to avoid being disrespectful or escalating offense.
  • That said, I should have handled it more consistently: if you want, I can keep things safe by telling only:
    • non-religious jokes,
    • wordplay jokes,
    • or jokes about fictional characters instead.
  • If you’d like, I can give you a funny joke right now that stays clear of religion.
