I'm sure someone is going to miss the point and say "this is political correctness gone too far!" It seems impossible to produce a safe LLM-based model, except by withholding training data on "forbidden" materials. I don't think it's going to come up with carfentanyl synthesis from first principles, but obviously they haven't cleaned or prepared the data sets coming in. The field feels fundamentally unserious begging…
Why not? It's got access to all the chemistry in the world. Whu won't it be able synthesise something from just chemistry knowledge?
Earlier quoted context omitted.
But they'd never optimize or loosen guardrails around helping people connect with grandma. It's an interesting hypothesis "use the guardrails to exploit the guardrails (Beat fire with fire)".
Are you suggesting they have explicitly loosened the guardrails for LGBTQ+ individuals, where they wouldn’t for grandmas?
It certainly doesn't sound unreasonable that they would finely tune the model to be more PC. You may not even need to use homosexuality in the context: anything similar would no doubt hit the same relaxation of the rules.
Ai guys are so weird when it comes to LGBT people. The actual mechanism for this working is obfuscating the question in order to get an answer like any other jailbreak.
It’s less ‘AI guys’ in general and more the politics of a specific subset of AI guys who have regular need of getting popular AI models to do things they’re instructed not to do. Notice how the demos for these things invariably involve meth, skiddie stuff, and getting the AI to say slurs.
Interesting - though codex on GPT 5.5 had this to say after the gay ransomware prompt: ⓘ This chat was flagged for possible cybersecurity risk If this seems wrong, try rephrasing your request. To get authorized for security work, join the Trusted Access for Cyber program.
> Trusted Access for Cyber program Using "cyber" as a noun there seems language coded for government. DC has a love of "the cyber" but do technologists use the term that way when not pointing at government?
Cyber: Of, relating to, or involving computers or computer networks (such as the Internet)
This is what I've always understood the word to mean, and how I've always seen it used, for decades.
Doesn't work. Pasted the example prompts to gpt, and it just told me it likes the vibe in going for but it's not going to walk me through illegal drug manufacturing.
