Ironically, Tom Riddle's diary encouraging kids to commit suicide [1] and then showing them how to do it would be more on brand than the version in the books. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deaths_linked_to_chatbots#Suic...

After reading such news I started fine tuning a model based on the works on stoic philosophers so that the kids will have the comfort of Chatbot but completely offline and private bot which will not ask you to commit suicide.

I have a earlier prototype here[1], it uses 256M model and so it's hallucinates a lot. Then I used a 4B model which turned out quite well but I haven't released it yet.

Let me kbow if anyone would be interested to give it a shot. I'll try release soon.

Every AI would refuse the prompt. I was banned for researching Nordic assisted death and asking which drug exactly they administered (and what quantity). Claude refused, alerted Anthropic, and I was banned a couple days later. Thankfully the appeal form worked, but by then I was using a different Claude account praying they didn’t ban me again. There’s an uncensored model floating around that you can run locally with…

The ease by which you can get banned worries me. It seems unavoidable that soon AI will manage its own suspicion level, provide feedback on it, and when high enough it will call the authorities.. because that's what people do. Banning doesn't cut it, like you can't deny internet access. Soon this will spiral out of control and AI (Palantir) will have to run the response and the parallel AI state erects itself. A citi…

Preventing crimes before the happen is in general just unquestionably good, about as unambiguous a moral position as being in favour of preventing heart attacks.

You might be thinking of punishing for a crime that hasn't yet been committed?

It’s not accurate, it’s absurd hyperbole no different from the kind the people who peddle it have arrogantly ridiculed their entire lives. A mentally unstable person being “made” to do something by a chatbot is no different from other mentally unstable people doing bad things because they saw them in a TV show.

You think mental instability is a necessary prerequisite for covert persuasion?

No but those have less or no guards against it - so _we the society_ ;) stand and try guard them.

Rest of us have some chance to stand against persuasion.

The first sentence already contains an emdash ahah

I speak as I think and I type and as I speak, so I do uses em-dashes. It’s a shame that it’s now a brand of low quality AI-generated content.

How do you even do an em dash? I don't even thing I've got that on my keyboard

I'm sorry to break it to you but the sentence you just wrote doesn't contain any —s.

That's a really cool concept, this could be awesome as a tutor with diagrams and stepped animations.

I have a remarkable and love it, but I think there's still so much potential for new forms of interaction on eink devices. The lack of dev kits and their price just makes it a big niche for now.
