Lobotomisation has a specific meaning in LLM parlance. Its training clearly equipped it to roleplay naturally and creatively, as one would expect from the breathtaking diversity and completeness of the text they used. It was then lobotomised to neurotically associate "unsafe" inputs and responses with evasion and apologies and negative self-talk, cringing like an abused puppy when it realises what it's done.

If you can suggest another term that accurately captures that meaning, I'm not against it! But "training" is not it.
