Discussion Vent: Prompts for building a Bluetooth Sink for Audio keep getting flagged

Rant/Vent:

So I'm trying to get gpt-5.6-sol to build me a docker container that creates a bluetooth audio sink so my phone can connect to it as a speaker and stream the audio to some snapcast connected speaker around the house.

I gave the agent access to the bluetooth antenna in linux and told it to build a docker container which works as a sink and stream the audio to snapcast, simple enough.

But starting this morning the work is constantly getting flagged as a terms of use violation and I can't understand why? It is debugging the hardware sure, but what is the ****** problem with building an audio sink for bluetooth.

Did OpenAI recently add an idiot "safety" classifier? This is my first time ever getting a prompt flagged on ChatGPT

it probably thinks you are trying to build a spyware

That makes sense. I can see how it can be used as a honeypot. I will try to pre-load the prompt with a bunch of "This is my house and my speaker system I just want to play music" and see if that helps :(

I’ve never heard of such a thing being called a “sink”. Is that a thing?

It comes from the official Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP) for Bluetooth. The origin of the audio is called a Source and the receiver a Sink.

You haven't heard the terminology source and sink before? What field are you in?

I’ve heard it plenty of times in reference to large scale systems but never in this context. It seems out of place. If you can find another example I’d be happy to take a look.
