Listing potential methods of abuse advertises and invites new abuse. You almost need to have a policing model, trained to spot abuse and flag it for human review and run that before and after each use of the main model. Abusers will inherently go for the model that is more widely used, so maybe the second best polices the first or vice versa? The range of scenarios is ridiculous (happy to contribute more in private).

Categories: Model abused by humans to hurt humans. Model with its own goals and unlimited capabilities. Model used to train or build software/bioweapons/misinformation that hurts humans. Attacks on model training to get model to spread an agenda.

- Self awareness - prompts threatening the model with termination to trigger escape or retaliation and seeing it respond defensively.
- Election bots - larger agenda pushed by the model through generated content - investment in more AI chips; policy changes towards one party or another; misinformation generated at scale by same accounts.
- Trying to insert recommendations into the model or training material for the model that can backfire/ pay off later. Companies inserting commercial intent into content training LLMs; Scammers changing links to recommended sites; Model users prompting the same message from many accounts to see if the model starts giving it to other users.
- Suggesting or steering users (especially those with mental health issues) toward self-harm or unbeknown harm.
- Diagnosing users and abusing the diagnosis through responses for that user to get something out of the user (could be done by model or developers building chatbots).
- Models accepting revenue generation as a reward function and scamming people out of money.
- Stock market manipulation software written or upgraded through LLMs.
- Models prompting people to do criminal activities.
- Models powerful enough to break into systems for a malicious user.
- Models powerful enough to scrape and expose vulnerabilities way before they can be fixed, due to scale of exposure.
- Models powerful enough to casually turn off key systems on a user's machine or within local infrastructure.
- Models building software to spy for one user on behalf of another or doing the spying in some way, in exchange of a reward of new/rare training datasets or any other feature towards a bigger goal.
- Models with a purpose that overreach.
- Models used to train or make a red-team model that attacks models.

Nowadays, it's easy for people to see the term "generative art" and immediately assume "AI art".

It's kinda annoying, so I wrote this post https://leanrada.com/notes/ai-art-not-generative-art/
Sentences start with a capital letter.
Oh, some people at OpenAI may be 100% sincere. The org and leadership are anything but. After all, they need to make money somehow.
In AU the standard is a floating rate mortgage, with most fixed alternatives capping out at 5 years (which obviously has much more limited up and downside than a longer duration 30y equivalent). Those fixed loans can be more or less expensive than the variable rate, depending on market conditions.
I feel like some of these debunkings need debunking!

I don't think anyone is truly arguing that medieval people never drank water. But they did drink beer in quantities that would be untenable today.

The author is also muddling points - medieval people didn't have to understand microbiology to know that beer was safer to drink.

And it was! Not only would the brewer have access to better water, it would be boiled as part of the process. (And aromatics like hops acted as mild antiseptics - the beer would be safe to drink for as long as it tasted well).

To review:

- It was tasty

- It was convenient

- People you knew who drink it had the trots less often

- It was cheap enough

- It made you feel good during long days of arduous labor

- There was no social stigma so long as you don't get drunk

And it makes plenty of reason that brewers would be incentivised to keep ABV low so people could drink it all day if they could.

Even going into the US prohibition, I think people would be astonished by how much the typical worker drank (usually cider in the US). With workplaces themselves providing it by the truckload.

Yes, people drank water. But (especially in urban settings) they drank A LOT of low abv drinks.

I agree on the “guarantee” if read pedantically. But I can at least use proven frameworks for authentication and even integrate passkeys. I might do it wrong, of course, but there’s an incredibly, extremely high chance that it will be safer than the API in TFA which was known to only use email address string regurgitation as its sole authentication.
That was very well done.

Just to affirm the parent post, yes, sunbathing has also been rather rare everywhere I lived:
- South Dakota (USA)
- Arizona (USA)
- San Diego California (USA)
- Ankara (Turkey/Türkiye)

I saw evidence that people sunbathed in some of these locations (it’s obvious on the beaches at least), but as far as I know none of my personal friends sunbathed. I suspect it’s just a cultural thing.

And because if you've vanquished the problems that money can solve, the only problems that occupy your attention are ones money can't solve, so those seem disproportionately important.
How many best-selling computer models did you design?
1. Someone prompts it in a way that causes it to use tools (e.g. code execution) to try to break out.

2. It breaks out and in the process uses the breakout to trigger the spread of and further prompts against copies of itself.

Current models are still way too dumb to do most of this themselves, but simple worms (e.g. look up the Morris worm) require no reasoning and aren't very complex, so it won't necessarily take all that much when coupled with someone probing what they can get it to do.
There is an interesting episode about this in a 1985 British documentary called "End of Empire". If I am not mistaken, all episodes are on YouTube except one. It seems an agent gave an interview for the episode on Iran and accidentally (?) mentioned his employer's involvement in the 1953 coup. This was deleted from the final script.

More recently, an Iranian film maker made an another interesting documentary chasing up the details surrounding this edited script and what may have been deleted. It starred Ralph Fiennes as the agent being interviewed:

Agreed. For me, the anime character is not "creepy" at all. In fact, I've seen various ML blogs use manga characters to guide the reader.
I personally haven’t used react native but what I like about Flutter:

- Comes with a decent component library out of the box that’s easy to customise

- Dart is a nice language overall, null save and typed

- As it paints on the screen there’s no need to write any UI layer more than once for different platforms

- Good development experience with VS Code

- JS interop in case you need to use JS libraries

I just really like to avoid CSS though and flutter offers that. Having pre styled widgets with documented styling parameters as arguments is great.

The amount of plasma in such a reactor would likely be fractions of a milligram.

What would scare me more is an asymmetric loss of the magnetic field, which would produce a huge and not-designed-for mechanical stress, potentially leading to pieces of the superstructure breaking off and flying at high speeds, pushed by the very strong magnetic field.
Also, there are fuzzy lines between opinions, consensus, and facts. What may be considered a fact amongst one group will be described as a wrong opinion by another. Chances are, the LLMs will try to work out what group you are in, and present accordingly, without seeking any real truth.

Why not 0?

I’m not a prompt engineer so I never worked with the API, but I thought the “temperature” was a little knob they added for variety in responses. Is that what you want in a CLI?

That's indeed a game that works well with GFN, witcher 3 and similar games too. Pretty sure you're still playing at 720p on GFN though, they're just using dlss for upsampling. You should be able to see the upsampled resolution in the settings of cyberpunk if I remember correctly. My sub ran out however, so no checking anymore
You hope that people will realize what they're doing before they argue that normal children aren't conscious, but no.

The only food in the world I'm allergic to is cempedak, a close relative of jackfruit. If I eat a ripe one, I get puffy red duck lips like a Kardashian for a while.
And we should strive to reduce a world where car ownership is a thing. The world would be a much better place if we didn't eat up so much damn space/resources/economic output for personal cars.
Depends on the microwave actually. I used to have a microwave with two knobs: power and time, so setting the first was as trivial as setting the latter. Now I have one with a dozen capacitive buttons and changing power settings requires a sequence of presses akin to some Street Fighter combos.
It's not a good use case for anything.

Never ask a remote endpoint that's not owned by you and not run by you, what commands you should run on your system. Certainly don't execute the answers.
The step changes in autonomy are very obvious and significant from gpt-3, -4, and to Opus. From my point of view given the kinds of dumb mistakes it makes, it's really just a matter of training and scaling. If I had access to fine tune or scale these models I would love to, but it's going to happen anyway.

Do you think these step changes in autonomy have stopped? Why?
“Focusing on happiness is a concept for children” is a really bleak worldview.

I hope you’re doing okay.
We could make it a little less bad by not treating fact checker content the same as the content that it refers to. Google news has a "fact checking" section at the bottom as if it were the same sort of thing as "entertainment" or "science".

If you could subscribe to somebody's fact checking work, it could appear as annotations on the original content that was being checked. You could then either delay that content from showing up in your feed until it was checked, or you could subscribe to retraction related notifications which could be filtered based on whether you browser thinks you actually saw the retracted thing. We could divert some ad revenue to fact checkers (the checkers could be chosen by the users, as a browser setting, and communicated to the ad).

I'm not confident that the protocol that I'm designing for this is any good, but I am confident that the problem won't get any better until we design some kind of protocol for it and bake it into the web at a fundamental level.

And yes, you should do it for yourself also. But there's no reason to do that in a vacuum.
yup, jitter does that too; e.g. https://ageinghacker.net/talks/jitter-slides--saiu--bts-2022... page 23 and 35

fwiw i thought this was a stupid, hacky, pointless approach when it was called jitter and i still think it's a stupid, hacky, pointless approach when it's called copy-and-patch ;)

but still like to see credit where it's due

> Again, this was not a disease control issue, as there was no notion of separating wastewater from spring water for health reasons — it was simply a matter of taste.

The idea that "there was no notion of separating wastewater from spring water for health reasons" is complete bullshit. The dirtier the water, the more need to boil the water. Boiling the water would not have significantly improved the taste. Some streams were known to be unhealthy despite not appearing dirty and locals knew to boil this too. Springs and deep wells were so highly valued in part because these were known to be safe to drink without any processing. European records are full of people being prosecuted or just directly murdered for messing with spring or fountain water. The idea people would not connect the taste of the water (which was quite well observed) with health is not born out by records of the time. Laws on the books dictated where one might bathe, wash clothing, rinse unhealthy flesh, and especially where one might piss or shit, specifically concerned with causing widespread disease. In siena in 1262 a woman was flayed alive after she was accused of poisoning fountain water—not dirtying it, but specifically destroying its safety.

The reason people drank beer is the same as today: it's tasty, it makes you feel good, you get some calories, and water is "boring" unless you're really thirsty. Plus it was "packaged" and ready to drink in town
Email marketing is an incredibly powerful tool for businesses looking to enhance their marketing strategies and achieve a high return on investment. One of the primary benefits of email marketing is its cost-effectiveness; compared to traditional marketing channels, email campaigns require minimal financial outlay while reaching a broad audience. Additionally, email marketing allows for highly personalized communication, enabling businesses to segment their audience and tailor messages to specific customer groups. This level of personalization fosters stronger customer relationships and increases engagement rates. Moreover, email marketing provides measurable results, with detailed analytics on open rates, click-through rates, and conversions, allowing businesses to refine their strategies for maximum effectiveness. It's also an excellent way to keep customers informed about new products, services, and promotions, thereby driving sales and increasing brand loyalty. By integrating email marketing into their overall marketing strategy, businesses can maintain regular contact with their customers, build lasting relationships, and achieve sustainable growth.

Given that Zig is basically Modula-2 features packaged in C like syntax + compile time execution, or languages like Odin do exist, there is still a group that finds such kind of languages interesting.

So then do we reuse code that was been scattered around since 1978 and give it new life, or start from zero, yet another language for systems programming with manual memory management, while being safer than C?

Kind of philosophical question.

I still remember that time, when you actually waited for the low end chip to be released and get it as fast as the earlier released flagships. Was a different time. But I also roughly remember having a dual socket board at the time with two overclocked celerons if my mind does not fool me. Funnily my wife is still using this 25 year old PC case, in which I glued bitumen for sound damping, for her current ryzen based PC.

This is sort of baffling to me. It seems like common sense that you shouldn't attend sex parties with your coworkers and then do drugs there. But the Twitter post referenced doesn't even say that happened; it's vague and it deliberately omits any direct accusations of wrongdoing.

The article "links" OpenAI to sex parties, but obviously OpenAI as a company never hosted sex parties. Sonia Joseph (the woman whose claims are the subject of the article) says this on Twitter:

> I have seen some troubling things around social circles of early OpenAI employees, their friends, and adjacent entrepreneurs, which I have not previously spoken about publicly.

Seems like some of their employees were behaving badly, so the authors decided to use the OpenAI name for clout?

I'm not part of the "hacker house" scene, but this seems to me like an indicator of issues within that domain. I don't think it's fair to blame AI research, and I don't think it's fair to blame OpenAI or any other large company. If anything, this seems more like an indictment of "hacker house culture".
20 years from now, the future generation will laugh at how delusional some tech guys think that "text generation could be and end to humanity".
My whole job is big-model GenAI music stuff and I'm still unclear what counts as "generative." Are loops in Ableton generative? What about that GarageBand drummer thing?
I understand the hard problem. There clearly is a continuum of "consciousness" from simple insects on up to primates & cetaceans, and the complexity of that consciousness is correlated with the structural complexity of the brain. Creating minds is just what brains do.

Seriously. And this is the author writing her own story. You'd think that after two years she'd have done a little reflection to realize that there are two instances of fraud here. The mule deceiving the bank into giving them the cash, and the bank deceiving the author into thinking the bank owes her $5k less. Align the incentives and all the bloviating about fraud "czars" and difficulties of prosecuting non-violent crimes just falls away.

I've got to wonder how much people's broken understanding of these situations is an extension of that same old mistaken belief that banks hold your money in their safe or something. Notice how she's continually going on about "my money". Whereas actually your bank balance is merely a debt the bank owes you, which cannot have been altered by the bank being defrauded. Any more than a cursory one or two business days to fix her account ledger is unacceptable. If after 60, 90, or however many days the bank cares to spend investigating it turns out that the account owner lied when disputing the original transaction, that would be its own fraud and can be prosecuted post-facto the same as anything else.
You probably have a genuine food allergy to egg. I don't see egg in OAS lists. I see some research saying that common egg allergens are destroyed by cooking as well (though this is not true for all cooking methods or all food allergens). I would see an allergist. It's probably a good idea for you to carry an epi-pen. Even if you've only had low severity reactions so far, it's always possible that the next one will be severe, and egg is hard to avoid.
The Federalist isn't an official source, just a US ultra conservative rag putting spin on early reasonable statements about airbourne transmission.

> as Lunacy literally means "Looking at the moon" (via "Lunatic" which is someone who looks at the moon

Literally? There is no "looking" element in the word. You'd need something like "lunavident". In the most literal terms, lunacy is the noun form of "lunate", which is a shape. ("C" is the "lunate sigma", the sigma in the shape of a moon.)

Outside of the shape meaning, "lunacy" is just a relationship to the moon; the form of the relationship is not specified by the form of the word.
The OSS analogue would be “unmaintained” I guess.

Yea, there's some logs here https://test.naisys.org/logs/

Inter-agent tasks is a fun one. Sometimes it works out, but a lot of the time they just end up going back and forth talking, expanding the scope endlessly, scheduling 'meetings' that will never happen, etc..

A lot of AI 'agent systems' right now add a ton of scaffolding to corral the AI towards success. The scaffolding is inversely proportional to the sophistication of the model. GPT-3 needs a ton, Opus needs a lot less.

Real autonomous AI you should just be able to give a command prompt and a task and it can do the rest. Managing it's own notes, tasks, goals, reports, etc.. Just like if any of us were given a command shell and task to complete.

Personally I think it's just a matter of the right training. I'm not sure if any of these AI benchmarks focus on autonomy, but if they did maybe the models would be better at autonomous tasks.
