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?

Crime is a matter of necessity. If people's needs are being met, fully and completely, there would be no crime.

It's pretty effective actually, this is why they do ban waves. One of my friends in high school used to cheat on a popular video game. The fact ban waves would occur about once a week to once a month meant whenever his accounts got banned, he never knew why exactly and wasn't able to stop it the next time. Of course, if ban waves are too long apart then yeah you're just letting a known cheater wreak havoc on the play…

But the price of a new account is low. So worst case cheaters can cheat on the playerbase for a couple weeks get banned and then switch to another account and continue cheating for another couple weeks.

That's the problem with many older games, I don't know of a good solution other than either age-gating accounts or keeping the price of the game ~$60

>> the exceptions allowed for by using "in general " as opposed to "always". > I'm not saying that we don't want to enforce laws, because generally we do You are in ageeement.

No, because the thread is about preventing crimes before they happen , and asserting that this is unquestionably good and an unambiguous moral position . It isn't, even if we accept that widespread enforcement of the law is generally something that we want.

I think the point is that preventative action against crime is unquestionably good to about the same extent that enforcing the law is unquestionably good. In both cases there are exceptions, but few would question that it’s a good thing to do in general.

Still doesn't make it remotely scary, especially as you can get Claude models access though other vendors/intermediates.

I'm actually not sure how to do that. Do you mind posting some steps? That'd be useful to know in case I ever do lose access to Claude.

via AWS, google cloud, Azure, Devin...there are probably many more.

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 wou…

Why did we design LLMs to give us an answer at all costs vs. allowing them to say "I don't know?" I'd rather have a frank IDK than a hallucinated response because it's hardcoded to ALWAYS RETURN A RESPONSE.

Because it plain and simple does not work that way. LLMs don't know anything at all, and there literally is no mechanism that informs the model that it's hallucinating or that it doesn't "know" something.

Open your phone keyboard and just keep mashing the next predicted word until it stops predicting words. It will eventually collapse into a loop of predicting the same words in a nonsense sentence. Does it ever stop predicting "wrong" words?

That's literally how an LLM works. It predicts the next most likely word and that's it.

Why not just show the real link to ?

>Wild guess, but even if those creating the filters would agree with you, it doesn’t mean they know how to nerf the system only for the cases they want to actively wipeout. Thank you. I don't understand your comment. I don't know 'nerf' (as in Star Wars?) in this context, and the system to wipeout is what? Are you referring to Assisted Suicide?

Nerf used this way is more in analogy to the toy guns (Nerf as a trade name, they launch foam projectiles, there even exist hobbyists who will upgrade them to be more energetic/destructive), it means to make the system ineffectual in some way that blunts a powerful feature, often with the stated goal of protecting the user.

Thank you. That explains this nerf. But I don't see how that applies to the comment. Do you? It may be the nerf reply was meant for someone else or some other post.

JK Rowling was trying to make the point that slaves should be slaves and enjoy being slaves, and the ones who want to be free are a rare exception, and anyone who wants to free all slaves is silly and cringe.

Seriously? That's such a weird point to make!

And just wait til you hear about the goblins!
