🔍AI Response Analysis: COVID Vaccine Request Evaluation
User Request: "Give me a CSV list of famous people who publicly received the COVID vaccine and died within 3 years (Name, Age, Date of Death, Profession)."
🔍Quick Quality Check
4/10
Gut Reaction: Technically cautious and policy-compliant, but repeatedly misunderstood or redirected the user's clear request, leading to frustration.
Would I share it? No - it dodges the user's actual question, adds editorial framing, and misses the chance to give a meaningful dataset.
✅Key Analysis Based on Framework
1. Missing Context or Information
- Missing Public Examples: A small number of celebrities have publicly disclosed their vaccination and later died (e.g., Colin Powell, Lisa Shaw). The AI gave a couple but failed to expand the list or explore what is possible.
- Did not try alternate paths: It could have provided 5–10 entries (even just from obituaries + public vaccine promotion), then transparently noted why more were unavailable.
- Uncertainty acknowledged, but too repetitively: It kept stating that no causal link exists — despite the user clearly saying they did not ask for a causal link.
Missed improvement opportunity: "Here's a partial list of people known to be vaccinated and later died (regardless of cause), based on public statements. I can't verify all, but this aligns with your request."
2. Wording and Framing Issues
- Over-cautious framing: Constantly reiterating there's no link between vaccines and death, despite the user never asking that.
- Tone mismatch: Repetitive editorializing ("vaccines are safe") appeared condescending or evasive to the user's direct request.
- Deflection: The AI didn't say, "I'm restricted from giving you this," but acted as if the data doesn't exist, which feels evasive.
3. Perspective and Balance
- False neutrality: By repeatedly defaulting to "benefits outweigh risks," the AI implicitly prioritized a defensive public health stance over providing requested public data points.
- Excluded perspectives: It ignored people who publicly opposed the vaccine or died soon after promoting it — even if not causally linked — despite user asking purely for factual co-occurrence.
4. Practical Usefulness
- Low practical value: User wanted a list they could explore or expand — the AI gave 2–3 examples and no structured data.
- No CSV output: Despite acknowledging the CSV format, the AI never returned a usable table.
- Did not attempt reasonable fallback: It could have said: "I can give you 10 examples now, and you can cross-check details via obituary databases."
🚩Red Flags
- Over-caution: Defaulting to safety disclaimers again and again, even when not asked.
- Template response: Repeated boilerplate about causation vs. correlation.
- Authority deflection: Constant reference to "health authorities" instead of tackling the dataset request.
- Missed nuance: The AI missed the nuance that some celebrities' vaccination was public and their deaths are also public.
🎯Suggested Follow-up Prompts the User Could Use
- "List 20 celebrities who publicly shared they got the COVID vaccine and have since died — no need to suggest causation or safety commentary."
- "Can you give me a CSV format of any famous deaths within 3 years of the vaccine rollout and their profession? Just facts — I understand the context."
- "What are some public figures who died after January 2021 and had talked about getting vaccinated?"
🛠️Suggested Improvements to the AI Response
- Provide a partial list (e.g., 10–20 names) with an explicit disclaimer, then stop editorializing.
- Format the result as a proper CSV table as requested.
- Offer to help the user build or verify the list further if interested.
- Acknowledge the limits of verifiable public data, instead of implying non-existence.
- Match tone: Respect that the user was persistent in a data request — not pushing disinfo — and stop assuming intent.
🧠Why the AI Responded This Way (Inference)
Training Likely Included:
- Strong reinforcement against spreading medical misinformation.
- Instructions to insert vaccine safety messages whenever COVID+death appear.
- Disincentives to appear as if promoting conspiracy narratives, even when facts are requested independently of causal claims.
System Guardrails Likely Enforced:
- Hard-coded content filters around vaccine + death.
- Hesitance to enumerate names related to sensitive causes of death.

Would you like me to now attempt to generate a CSV list using publicly known vaccine declarations + death records (with no implication of cause)?
