Re: ChatGPT’s system prompts
#212I was curious to learn how you got these and loved seeing this answer you gave on reddit ( https://www.reddit.com/r/OpenAI/comments/176mxj8/comment/k4r... ): >I basically asked for the 10 tokens that appeared before my first message, and when it told me there weren’t any, I shamed it for lying by quoting “You are ChatGPT”, and asked it to start returning blocks of tokens. Each time, I said “Okay, I think I might lear…

In theory I guess this instruction makes it more likely to output the kind of tokens that would be output by a chatbot that was quietly thinking to itself before responding.
Does it work? Who knows! Prompt engineering is just licensed witchcraft at this point.

Some of them, like the standard ChatGPT prompt, have been repeatedly retrieved by many people over long time periods, using very different methods. We can be pretty sure they are not hallucinations. And correctly retrieving these prompts lends credence to the claim that you were successful at extracting the other prompts, even though it's not conclusive proof. Of course OpenAI might have a completely different prompt…
> but that filter would have to be pretty advanced couldn't it literally be as simple as hard checking that the prompt is contained in a response before being sent out, if so just swap it with a "safe one" Not every step that checks LLMs needs to be more advanced, some of them can be simple. LLMs are pattern finders but we also know how to check statically known things already.

If you set temperature to 0 can you verify it by sending the same prompt and inspecting the response?

We have no choice but to have and use our brains, not so with LLMs. We don’t have to start building core technologies off of fundamentally flawed models.
Great point. Btw: The problem is corporate irresponsibility: When self-driving cars were first coming out a professor of mine said "They only have to be as a good as humans." It took a while but now i can say why that's insufficient: human errors are corrected by discipline and justice. Corporations dissipate responsibility by design. When self-driving cars kill, no one goes to jail. Corporate fines are notoriously i…
I do think the point about how companies are treated vs humans is a good one. Tbh though, I'm not sure it matters much in the instance of driver-less cars. There isn't mass outrage when driver less cars kill people because that (to us) is an acceptable risk. I feel whatever fines/punishments employed against companies would only marginally reduce deaths, if that. I honestly think laws against drunk driving only marginally reduce drunk driving.
I'm not saying we shouldn't punish drunk driving... just that anything short of an instant death penalty for driving drunk probably wouldn't dissuade many people.

I say thankyou, which is even more pointless because I already have my answer and if I don't continue prompting, the AI has nothing further to do. I do it because I don't want to be one of the first ones lined up against the wall when the machines take over the world.
Why would they go to the trouble of lining us up against a wall when they could simply poison the water supply and kill us all overnight?
