I think regardless of what you think the chatgpt huggingface hack says or doesn't say about alignment, a pretty undeniable takeaway is that models that aren't airgapped should be considered pretty much uncontainable, and this is the most containable they'll ever be

Everyone wants "less combative" social media, but what we actually need are ways to win the combat and get it over with. All social media fights are never ending and thats the annoying bit.

I've been learning about graphical linear algebra, which allows you to represent linear maps with wire diagrams instead of matrices. Super interesting? graphicallinearalgebra.net/2015/04/23/m... I'm also learning about PROPs -- Product and Permutation categories, which the framework is based on.

I worry that the way LLMs lately tack on superfluous follow up questions to their responses might be deleterious. When I ignore them and ask some other question, this is kind of rude, or would be if it was human. Does this shift the conversation to a less constructive region of the distribution?

when you're explaining something, it's best to break it down into lots of simple steps, to make it easier to understand. But when you're arguing with someone, that just gives them the opportunity to see the conclusion coming and derail the process before you inexorably arrive there.
