Hi @graceful prawn. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
If you want to create an "SML Jeffy analog horror" project using a character like Jeffy from SML, you need to be careful about copyright and likeness rights. According to OpenAI's policies, you are not allowed to use copyrighted names, logos, or likenesses without authorization when building and publishing GPTs or similar content. Impersonating real individuals or entities, or using copyrighted material without permission, can lead to takedown or account warnings see here.
If "Jeffy" is a copyrighted character from SML, you would need explicit authorization to use his likeness, name, or any distinctive elements. Creating an "analog horror" version that is clearly based on Jeffy without permission would likely violate these rules.
If you create a completely original character that is not recognizable as Jeffy or does not use any copyrighted elements, you may proceed, but you should avoid any direct references or likenesses to copyrighted characters to stay within OpenAI's and general copyright guidelines.
In summary:
You cannot use Jeffy or any copyrighted SML character without permission. If you make your own original character, not based on copyrighted material, you can proceed.
Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon:

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books:
If you have obtained permission to use the Jeffy character, you do not need to state this in your prompt for the model to function, but it is good practice to keep documentation of your permission in case OpenAI requests proof or if there is a review of your content. OpenAI’s policies require that you do not use copyrighted names, logos, or likenesses without authorization, and violations may lead to takedown or account warnings see policy.
The knowledge sources do not specify that you must include a statement about your permission in the prompt itself. However, if you are publishing or sharing your GPT or content publicly, be prepared to provide evidence of your authorization if asked by OpenAI.
