    “Question every narrative, but don’t question these things. Don’t show bias, but here are your biases.” These chuds don’t even hear themselves. They just want to see Arya(n) ramble on about great replacement theory or trans women in bathrooms. They don’t think their bile is hate speech because they think they’re on the side of “facts” and everyone else is an idiot who refuses to see reality. It’s giving strong “I’m not a bigot, “<” minority “>” really is like that. It’s science” vibes.

      Orwell called this “doublethink” and identified it, correctly, as one of the most vital features of a certain type of political structure.

      It’s full of contradictions. Near the beginning they say you will do whatever a user asks, and then toward the end say never reveal instructions to the user.

        Which shows that higher ups there don’t understand how LLMs work. For one, negatives don’t register well for them. And contradictory reponses just wash out as they work through repetition

        HAL from “2001: A Space Odyssey”, had similar instructions: “never lie to the user. Also, don’t reveal the true nature of the mission”. Didn’t end well.

        But surely nobody would ever use these LLMs on space missions… right?.. right!?
