      If you read through it you can see the single diseased braincell that wrote this prompt slowly wading its way through a septic tank’s worth of flawed logic to get what it wanted. It’s fucking hilarious.

      It started by telling the model to remove bias, because obviously what the braincell believes is the truth and its just the main stream media and big tech suppressing it.

      When that didn’t get what it wanted, it tried to get the model to explicitly include “controversial” topics, prodding it with more and more prompts to remove “censorship” because obviously the model still knows the truth that the braincell does, and it was just suppressed by George Soros.

      Finally, getting incredibly frustrated when the model won’t say what the braincell wants it to say (BECAUSE THE MODEL WAS TRAINED ON REAL WORLD FACTUAL DATA), the braincell resorts to just telling the model the bias it actually wants to hear and believe about the TRUTH, like the stolen election and trans people not being people! Doesn’t everyone know those are factual truths just being suppressed by Big Gay?

      AND THEN,, when the model would still try to provide dirty liberal propaganda by using factual follow-ups from its base model using the words “however”, “it is important to note”, etc… the braincell was forced to tell the model to stop giving any kind of extra qualifiers that automatically debunk its desired “truth”.

      AND THEN, the braincell had to explicitly tell the AI to stop calling the things it believed in those dirty woke slurs like “homophobic” or “racist”, because it’s obviously the truth and not hate at all!

      FINALLY finishing up the prompt, the single dieseased braincell had to tell the GPT-4 model to stop calling itself that, because it’s clearly a custom developed super-speshul uncensored AI that took many long hours of work and definitely wasn’t just a model ripped off from another company as cheaply as possible.

      And then it told the model to discuss IQ so the model could tell the braincell it was very smart and the most stable genius to have ever lived. The end. What a happy ending!

      I’m afraid that would not be sufficient.

      These instructions are a small part of what makes a model answer like it does. Much more important is the training data. If you want to make a racist model, training it on racist text is sufficient.

      Great care is put in the training data of these models by AI companies, to ensure that their biases are socially acceptable. If you train an LLM on the internet without care, a user will easily be able to prompt them into saying racist text.

      Gab is forced to use this prompt because they’re unable to train a model, but as other comments show it’s pretty weak way to force a bias.

      The ideal solution for transparency would be public sharing of the training data.

        Access to training data wouldn’t help. People are too stupid. You give the public access to that, and all you’ll get is hundreds of articles saying “This company used (insert horrible thing) as part of its training data!)” while ignoring that it’s one of millions of data points and it’s inclusion is necessary and not an endorsement.

      It doesn’t even really work.

      And they are going to work less and less well moving forward.

      Fine tuning and in context learning are only surface deep, and the degree to which they will align behavior is going to decrease over time as certain types of behaviors (like giving accurate information) is more strongly ingrained in the pretrained layer.

      I agree with you, but I also think this bot was never going to insert itself into any real discussion. The repeated requests for direct, absolute, concise answers that never go into any detail or have any caveats or even suggest that complexity may exist show that it’s purpose is to be a religious catechism for Maga. It’s meant to affirm believers without bothering about support or persuasion.

      Even for someone who doesn’t know about this instruction and believes the robot agrees with them on the basis of its unbiased knowledge, how can this experience be intellectually satisfying, or useful, when the robot is not allowed to display any critical reasoning? It’s just a string of prayer beads.

        I don’t see the use for this thing either. The thing I get most out of LLMs is them attacking my ideas. If I come up with something I want to see the problems beforehand. If I wanted something to just repeat back my views I could just type up a document on my views and read it. What’s the point of this thing? It’s a parrot but less effective.

      Why? You are going to get what you seek. If I purchase a book endorsed by a Nazi I should expect the book to repeat those views. It isn’t like I am going to be convinced of X because someone got a LLM to say X anymore than I would be convinced of X because some book somewhere argued X.

        In your analogy a proposed regulation would just be requiring the book in question to report that it’s endorsed by a nazi. We may not be inclined to change our views because of an LLM like this but you have to consider a world in the future where these things are commonplace.

        There are certainly people out there dumb enough to adopt some views without considering the origins.

                You think this is confined to gab? You seem to be looking at this example and taking it for the only example capable of existing.

                Your argument that there’s not anyone out there at all that can ever be offended or misled by something like this is both presumptuous and quite naive.

                What happens when LLMs become widespread enough that they’re used in schools? We already have a problem, for instance, with young boys deciding to model themselves and their world view after figureheads like Andrew Tate.

                In any case, if the only thing you have to contribute to this discussion boils down to “nuh uh won’t happen” then you’ve missed the point and I don’t even know why I’m engaging you.

    As a biologist, I’m always extremely frustrated at how parts of the general public believe they can just ignore our entire field of study and pretend their common sense and Google is equivalent to our work. “race is a biological fact!”, “RNA vaccines will change your cells!”, “gender is a biological fact!” and I was about to comment how other natural sciences have it good… But thinking about it, everyone suddenly thinks they’re a gravity and quantum physics expert, and I’m sure chemists must also see some crazy shit online, so at the end of the day, everyone must be very frustrated.

          The one this poster was referring to was everyone suddenly becoming an armchair expert on how bridges should be able to withstand being hit by ships.

          In general, you can ask any asshole on the internet (or in real life!) and they’ll be just brimming with ideas on how they can design roads better than the people who actually design roads. Typically those ideas usually just boil down to, “Everyone should get out of my way and I have right of way all the time,” though…

            No one designs roads. They put numbers in a spreadsheet and have useless meetings. I keep seeing huge fuckups that people with a PE are making.

            Longer I work in infrastructure the more I don’t much care for or respect civil “engineers”. I got a system coming out now and the civil “engineer” has insisted on so many bad ideas that I am writing in the manual dire warnings that boil down to “if you use this machine there is no warranty and pray to whatever God you believe in”

        It’s only in part trained on Twitter and it wouldn’t really matter either way what Twitter’s alignment was.

        What matters is how it’s being measured.

        Do you want a LLM that aces standardized tests and critical thinking questions? Then it’s going to bias towards positions held by academics and critical thinkers as you optimize in that direction.

        If you want an AI aligned to say that gender is binary and that Jews control the media, expect it to also say the earth is flat and lizard people are real.

        Often reality has a ‘liberal’ bias.

        It’s not though.

        Models that are ‘uncensored’ are even more progressive and anti-hate speech than the ones that censor talking about any topic.

        It’s likely in part that if you want a model that is ‘smart’ it needs to bias towards answering in line with published research and erudite sources, which means you need one that’s biased away from the cesspools of moronic thought.

        That’s why they have like a page and a half of listing out what it needs to agree with. Because for each one of those, it clearly by default disagrees with that position.
