One can fine tune a smaller parameter model like GPT-NeoX on a home GPU pretty readily, and it's absolutely capable of doing what you specified. Teach it with a bunch of example sentences that have parts of speech like verb and noun following a simple grammar, and you will see it generate sentences afterward that combine the parts of speech grammatically in novel ways, using the same grammatical structures but formin…
No I mean creating 50-grams that appear in the dataset created by the paper linked by OP, but not present in the actual dataset the model was trained on. Of course, the model would be able to output 50-grams that were not present in either.

#13I'm not much worried about this specific example of information exfiltration, though I have significant concerns over how one may debug something like this for applications working with potentially more sensitive data than email signatures. Put another way, I think we are well within the infancy of this technology, and there is far more work needed before we have actually useful applications that have a concept of information security relative to their training data sets.

#14A friend sent me the image from page 9. The email signature. It is mine, from when I ran my company. Mid 2010s.

If you Google parts of the old signature, do you get any results?

#15An LLM remembers like a human. Mostly concepts, but some things it remembers verbatim. Why is it a problem if a LLM tells you what it knows? Are LLMs trained on secret data?
> Are LLMs trained on secret data? Probably. And on copyrighted data probably as well.
