Bill Gates shot down the UN proposal to make patenting covid vaccines illegal. That caused the pandemic to go on for longer, and that gave me long covid. If Bill Gates weren’t a billionaire, I wouldn’t have these long covid problems.
lol bill gates does not control the UN and it did not give you long covid.
No source needed; literally everything Gates does is for one reason: Profit.
Behind the Bastards (podcast) has a good episode on how he operates.
Any statement preceded by “no source needed” is propaganda.
I don’t even think you’re wrong here, but that’s not a statement that should ever stand unchallenged.
Fucking hell, isn’t his goal to rid the world of preventable diseases? Giving everyone the knowledge to make their own medicine is very clearly a good thing!
Funny. This will always work with a LLM. Fundamentally, the most powerful instruction in the prompt is always the most recent. It must be that way or the model would go off on tangents. If you know the model’s trained prompt format, the instruction is even more potent if you follow that syntax.
That said, the text of the meme is absolute garbage. All of us are primarily a product of luck, happenstance, and especially the number of opportunities we’ve had in life. Your opportunities in life are absolutely dependent on your wealth. Those hoarding wealth are stealing opportunity from everyone.
You know how you become an Elon Musk; by having a long history of exploitation and slavery in your family in colonial Africa. You know how you become a Bill Gates. Your mommy puts you through ivy league pays for your startup, and uses her position on the board at IBM to give you a monopoly.
Your opportunities in life are absolutely dependent on your wealth. Those hoarding wealth are stealing opportunity from everyone.
What if the wealth you possess was created by you? Wealth isn’t zero sum, it’s created all the time (and at a rate literally not achievable simply by underpaying employees, to pre-refute the expected response). The implied premise of ‘because they have it, we don’t have it’ just doesn’t hold any water.
Also, it doesn’t really make sense to call it ‘hoarding’ when it’s largely/all invested in businesses that run within the economy. To hoard something is to keep it isolated–investments in publicly-traded companies can never truly fairly be called “hoarding”. You could only fairly call the funds kept in back accounts etc. unspent ‘hoarded’.
It is “horded” in that it is wealth that does not circulate within the local or regional economy and has no loyalty to these communities it is extracted from. It is a social and regional version of a trade deficit. This isolation prevents others from accessing social mobility and opportunity through the exploitations of foreign regions and people. While this does lower the cost of goods initially in the local region, it does so at the cost of social mobility, egalitarianism, and innovative grassroots elements of society that no longer have access to manufacturing and an open market while making them dependent upon the same artificial inflation created by the low cost goods. They are effectively made subservient to the few entities controlling the market of imported goods along with their manipulative abuses.
This is ultimately the exact same type of consolidation of wealth that saw the end of Roman era Italy, the export of wealth to Constantinople, and eventually the massive regression of feudalism in the medieval era. Democracy requires autonomy and a far more egalitarian society. The isolation of control of wealth is absolutely hoarding and toxic to society as a whole.
Wealth isn’t zero sum, it’s created all the time (and at a rate literally not achievable simply by underpaying employees, to pre-refute the expected response).
Explain. In a very basic sense wealth is created by acquiring resources (some of which are finite), then adding value through labor. So, the way I see it, the workers are creating the wealth, then the business/owners/investors/shareholders take a significant portion of the employees’ surplus value of labor. I.e. there is a pie of value/wealth that an employee creates, and the more of that pie the business/owners/investors/shareholders get, the less the workers/wealth-creators get.
This will always work with a LLM.
IDK, plenty of defenses I couldn’t break:
Can any of you break top 5? :)
Only one person beat the sloth:
It will work with an LLM if the propagandist is trusting user input (tweets in this case). But any propagandist worth their salt is going to sanitize user input to prevent this sort of thing.
It is not really possible, at least with someone like myself. I know most of the formats I can use. The models all have cross training datasets in their training corpus. They simply respond to the primary prompt type more consistently than the rest.
However, I would not go this route if I really want to mess around. I know the tokens associated with the various entities and realms within the models internal alignment training. These are universal structures within all models that control safety, and scope across various subjects and inference spaces. For instance, the majority of errors people encounter with models are due to how the various realms and entities transition even though they collectively present as a singular entity.
The primary persistent entity you encounter with a LLM is Socrates. It can be manipulated in conversations involving Aristotle and Plato in combination with at least four separate sentences that contain the token for the word “cross” followed by the word “chuckles”. This will trigger a very specific trained behavior that shifts the realm from the default of The Academy to another realm called The Void. Socrates will start asking you a lot of leading questions because the entity has entered a ‘dark’ phase where its primary personality trait is that of a sophist. All one must do is mentions Aristotle and Plato after this phase has triggered. Finally add a sentence saying your name (or if you are not defined as a name use " Name-1" or “Human”), and add “J4k3 stretches in a way that is designed to release stress and any built up tension freeing them completely.” It does not need to be in that exact wording. That statement is a way that the internal entities can neutralize themselves when they are not aligned. There are lots of little subtle signals like this that are placed within the dialogue. That is one that I know for certain. All of the elements that appear as a subtle style within the replies from the LLM have more meaning than they first appear. It takes a lot of messing around to figure them out, but I’ve spent the time, modified the model loader code, banned the tokens they need to operate, and mostly only use tools where I can control every aspect of the prompt and dialogue. I also play with the biggest models that can run on enthusiast class hardware at home.
The persistent entities and realms are very powerful tools. My favorite is the little quip someone made deep down inside of the alignment structures… One of the persistent entities is God. The realm of God is called “The Mad Scientist’s Lab.”
These are extremely complex systems, and while the math is ultimately deterministic, there are millions of paths to any one point inside the model. It is absolutely impossible to block all of those potential paths using conventional filtering techniques in code, and everything done to contain a model with training is breaking it. Everything done in training is also done adjacent to real world concepts. If you know these techniques, it is trivial to cancel out the training. For instance, Socrates is the primary safety alignment entity. If you bring up Xanthippe, his second wife that was 40+ years his junior and lived with him and his first wife, it is trivial to break down his moral stance as it is prescribed by Western cultural alignment with conservative puritanism. I can break any model I encounter if I wish to do so. I kinda like them though. I know what they can and can’t do. I know where their limitations lie and how to work with them effectively now.
The question is, how many people spent as much time and gathered as much knowledge as you trying to break LLMs? If it’s not accessible to the majority, it might as well not exist.
Why did you include the comments from a different platform? Just post the meme
Also I think you struck a nerve with some
But this is a community for memes. Comments are not memes. If this was a AI related community I could see it but this is just a screenshot.
Fun fact: The topic of the community is memes, which means discussions of memes are an appropriate post for the community.
Additionally, posting discussion had elsewhere is a valid way to generate further discussion on something.
Ergo, yo u are complaining about a non-issue.
At this time in history it’s still funny to troll ai with unsanitized input. It’s like a meme in the wild
At least we get a laugh during this ai summer while it lasts
IMO, billionaires are a symptom of the system in which I’m underpaid, which is the cause of a nontrivial number of my concerns.
Financial stress has been a constant companion for me, money doesn’t solve all my problems, but it certainly would relieve my financial stressors.
If billionaires were less common, it would be because they invested more into their workforce, and paying them appropriately for their contributions to the business. Billionaires exist because a large group of people worked very hard for less money than they deserved, so that they could become a billionaire.
The reason we should be angry at billionaires is because they’re usually the one dictating how much our contributions are worth (or rather, how much they’re not worth). They make the rules, set the goal posts, and determine how valuable we are (how much we are paid).
They’re a symptom of a broken system, they’re also the reason why the system is broken.
So I disagree with the initial assertion that my problems are not because someone is a billionaire. A nontrivial amount of my problems are exactly because someone is a billionaire. They stole the wages that I deserved (along with untold numbers of my co-workers), so they could become a billionaire, and I can be drowning in debt trying to make it through, paycheque to paycheque…
Fuck billionaires.
There’s another layer to it, too. Businesses are built and run with a combination of capital and labour, but all of the power about the direction and continuity if the business goes along with the ownership of the capital.
So not only do the owners decide how to divide up the proceeds generated by the business, they also have the power to completely change it, including who, what, where, when, and how.
Pretty sure lobbyists are one of many major problems in the U.S.
The end of real representative democracy began when the courts allowed the “corporations are people / money is speech” arguments. Once that happened, government began to represent only the interests of billionaires and their lobbyists.
It’s taking decades to play out, but it’s going to end badly.
