In what way would (A|a)pple's own AI writing "imac" endanger the trademark? Is capitalisation even part of a word-based trademark? I'm more surprised they don't have a rule to do that rather grating s/the iPhone/iPhone/ transform (or maybe it's in a different file?).

Yes, proper nouns are capitalized. And of course it's much worse for a company's published works to not respect branding-- a trademark only exists if it is actively defended. Official marketing material by a company has been used as legal evidence that their trademark has been genericized: >In one example, the Otis Elevator Company's trademark of the word "escalator" was cancelled following a petition from Toledo-bas…

Interesting that it didn't seem to include "unalive". Which as a phenomenon is so very telling that no one actually cares what people are really saying. Everyone, including the platforms knows what that means. It's all performative.

It's totally performative. There's no way to stay ahead of the new language that people create. At what point do the new words become the actual words? Are there many instances of people using unalive IRL?

If only we had a way to mass process the words people write to each other, derive context from those words, and then identify new slang designed to bypass filters…

Alexandra Ocasio Cortez triggers a violation? https://github.com/BlueFalconHD/apple_generative_model_safet...

I assume all the corporate GenAI models have blocks for "photorealistic image of being arrested", " waving ISIS flag", " punching baby" and suchlike.

Maybe so, but think about how such a thing would be technically implemented, and how it would lead to false positives and false negatives, and what the consequences would be.

Some of the combinations are a bit weird, This one has lots of stuff avoiding death....together with a set ensuring all the Apple brands have the correct capitalisation. Priorities hey! https://github.com/BlueFalconHD/apple_generative_model_safet...

I'm surprised there hasn't been a bigger backlash against platforms that apply censorship of that sort.

So it blocks it from suggesting to "execute" a file or "pass on" some information.

No-one cares yet.

There's a very scary potential future in which mega-corporations start actually censoring topics they don't like. For all I know the Chinese government is already doing it, there's no reason the British or US one won't follow suit and mandate such censorship. To protect children / defend against terrorists / fight drugs / stop the spread of misinformation, of course.

It's not silly. I would bet 99% of the users don't care that much to do that. A hardcoded regex like this is a good first layer/filter, and very efficient

Yep. These filters are applied first before the safety model (still figuring out the architecture, I am pretty confident it is an LLM combined with some text classification) runs.

All commercial LLM products I’m aware of use dedicated safety classifiers and then alter the prompt to the LLM if a classifier is tripped.

How about disassemble? Or does that only matter if used in context of Johnny 5?
