Mind that when you ask it to provide arguments for views its training material opposes, even though you do occasionally get an answer like shown above the quality of the reasoning in that answer is usually a lot worse than on opposing viewpoints.
It is as if it presents only the most simple arguments. On this very subject for example I never once saw it say "without viable grid scale storage, or near lossless continental scale transmission networks, every watt of renewable capacity must be matched by conventional and nuclear sources making it impossible to build a network that relies on renewables for a majority of its installed capacity".
Same with other topics, where it repeated certain "comic book villain" arguments, but didn't come up with anything that could convince any real human. So I think many of those "jailbreaks" are really just intentionally poor role playing.
