(Assuming US jurisdiction) Because you don't want to be the first test case under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act where the prosecutor argues that circumventing restrictions on a company's AI assistant constitutes

ntentionally ... Exceed[ing] authorized access, and thereby ... obtain[ing] information from any protected computer
