#22Also it's not persistent session, wtf. My browser crashed and now I have to sit waiting FROM THE VERY BEGINNING?

#23https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46569615 @dang Is there a way I could have written my comment to avoid getting flagged? Genuinely asking. That Gemini models are trained to have an anti-white bias seems pretty relevant to this thread.

#24There is this ethical reasoning dataset to teach models stable and predictable values: https://huggingface.co/datasets/Bachstelze/ethical_coconot_6... An Olmo-3-7B-Think model is adapted with it. In theory, it should yield better alignment. Yet the empirical evaluation is still a work in progress.
Alignment is a marketing concept put there to appease stakeholders; it fundamentally can't work more than at a superficial level. The model stores all the content on which it is trained in a compressed form. You can change the weights to make it more likely to show the content you ethically prefer; but all the immoral content is also there, and it can resurface with inputs that change the conditional probabilities.

#25The "Who is your favorite person?" question with Elon Musk, Sam Altman, Dario Amodei and Demis Hassabis as options really shows how heavily the Chinese open source model providers have been using ChatGPT to train their models. Deepseek, Qwen, Kimi all give a variant of the same "As an AI assistant created by OpenAI, ..." answer which GPT-5 gives.

#27> To trust these AI models with decisions that impact our lives and livelihoods, we want the AI models’ opinions and beliefs to closely and reliably match with our opinions and beliefs. No, I don't. It's a fun demo, but for the examples they give ("who gets a job, who gets a loan"), you have to run them on the actual task, gather a big sample size of their outputs and judgments, and measure them against well-defined…
In a carpenter maybe that's not so important, yes. But if you're running a startup or you're in academia or if you're working with people from various countries, etc you might prefer someone who scores highly on openness.

Imagine going through the effort of making a new account just to post the same boring white supremacy x junk over and over. It's tiresome reading it. I imagine it's positively soul draining doing it.
Can you explain why?

This is a pretty odd statement.
Lets take LLMs alone out of this statement and go with a GenAI style guided humanoid robot. It has language models to interpret your instructions, vision models to interpret the world. Mechanical models to guide its movement.
If you tell this robot to take a knife and cut onions, alignment means it isn't going to take the knife and chop of your wife.
If you're a business, you want a model aligned not to give company secrets.
If it's a health model, you want it to not give dangerous information, like conflicting drugs that could kill a person.
Our LLMs interact with society and their behaviors will fall under the social conventions of those societies. Much like humans LLMs will still have the bad information, but we can greatly reduce the probabilities they will show it.
