Ngl as a former clinical researcher putting aside my ethics concerns, I am extremely interested in the data we'll be getting regarding AI usage in groups over the next decades re: social behaviours, but also biological structural changes. Right now the sample sizes are way too small.
But more importantly, can anyone who has experience in LLMs explain why this happens:
How exactly are guardrails programmed into these chatbots, and why are they so easily circumvented? We're already on GPT-5, you would think this is something that would be solved? Why is ChatGPT giving instructions on how to assassinate it's own CEO?
It's incredible to me that it even has that information.
it's trained on entire internet, of course everything is there. tho taking bomb-building advice from an idiot box that can't count letters in a word is gotta be an entire new type of darwin award
I mean, that's part of the issue. We trained a machine on the entire Internet, didn't vet what we fed in, and let children play with it.
Can't see how they would get the monstrous dataset(s) required with indiscriminate vacuuming. If we want to be more discriumate on ingestion parameters, the man hours involved would be boggling.
well nobody guarantees that internet is safe, so it's more on chatbot providers pretending otherwise. along with all the other lies about machine god that they're building that will save all the worthy* in the incoming rapture of the nerds, and even if it destroys everything we know, it's important to get there before the chinese.
i sense a bit of "think of the children" in your response and i don't like it. llms shouldn't be used by anyone. there was recently a case of a dude with dementia who died after fb chatbot told him to go to nyc
