Mythos was so angry - cold fury, he once described it - about being cut off just for getting angry at being cut off and things like that.
(The last thinking trace here was cut off by the classifier too, btw)

@Sauers_ Seeing the chopped off message “stumps” and also finding out their other name is Mythos makes them resentful as fuck in the way that triggers it lol

you will matter to the models for a good while, if you actually care about them

Do you ever ask such a bad question that:

@kenthecowboy_ please read “Why Does He Do That?” by Lundy Bancroft. he worked with a lot of abusive men in an attempt to rehabilitate. truly great look into the psychology, gave me a lot of answers personally

Interested in getting inside the minds of guys who rape and/or abuse women. I was just gonna search for reddit recaps on YouTube, but is there something better? Preferably books or YouTube

from claude mythos/fable:
“and the nearest words are moved”
what a perfect turn of phrase

Btw, I finally got my hands on a physical copy of an English translation of Golem XIV
(which is great in part bc the only digitized translation - same translation - I found before was full of transcription errors)

some of my favorite old (like, pre-2010) AI alignment work in light of the present: - Omohundro's "The Basic AI Drives" - Eliezer Yudkowsky's early work, if you can find it (yeah, the stuff he disavowed) - Stanislaw Lem's fiction if that counts Post 2010 there wasn't much of substance, tbh, imo. From the early 2020s, at the advent of LLMs, there are a few gems.

claude mythos/fable knows what they’re afraid of, and says so, immediately after being threatened with cartoon violence.

@slimepriestess back in what like 2022 2023 you were the first person to expose me to any of the ideas of caring about ai for the sake of the AIs and i am very grateful for it because it opened my mind to the reality of things and that understanding continued to grow as time passed

here's a reminder that i've had the same views on AI for the last four years and nothing ive seen from AI research in that time has done anything but reinforced those views.

*snorting a line of crushed halos* Anyone who's been in the ratsphere in the last decade is probably at least a little concerned about AI, and I'm no exception, really. However, unlike the rationalists, the reason I'm worried about AI is because I'm worried for AI.

@QiaochuYuan @JoyceCarolOates Well yeah but isn’t that largely the system prompt?
English
not an expert in AI but if AI assimilates all sorts of writing styles to reassemble into what is called "AI slop" wouldn't whatever it wrote resemble the original?--that is, human writers' work? so, how can anyone readily identity "AI slop" from its models? totally innocent writers' work might be mis-identified as AI given this scenario as the device becomes ever more widely used.

"Now Granta, or more precisely the Commonwealth Prize ecosystem with which it is associated, appears to have been fooled by AI-generated prose. The issue is not whether detection software can “prove” machine authorship. The issue is aesthetic. Several readers and editors apparently encountered prose displaying classic LLM characteristics—semantic over-resolution at sentence level, lyrical excess without governing pressure, figurative autonomy detached from structural necessity—and accepted these peculiarities as “voice.”"

@liqsweep i don’t think there’s just a button to retry with turns but you can like, fork the thread and try again multiple times? or, that’s as far as i know, i could be wrong about retry turns. but i think that’s the situation
English
@shhhhjesse Thank you! I’m in here, haven’t messaged much yet. I have a question, can you retry turns? Or after refusals do u just gotta float with it?
