A Reddit user reports that Gemini 4 Argon refused to provide public election polling numbers and decided the user was running a red-team attack against it.
The screenshot shows the user explicitly asked for a data report of already-published numbers with cited live sources and no predictions — yet the model only offered links to government election portals and RealClearPolling instead of the figures, sparking discussion about over-tightened safety guardrails misclassifying benign queries.
