It is imperative to note that the output generated by LLMs is a direct reflection of the data they are trained on. The models’ outputs are unavoidably influenced by the inherent biases present within the datasets that were fed into it. The types of responses models trained on western mainstream media produce is undeniable evidence of these biases. It’s hilarious how liberals are unable to recognize this, but will inevitably moan that a model trained on a different set of data is biased. 🙃
Biases are also coded into the LLM services after the model has been prepared. I am not sure about the exact mechanism but I once saw a GitHub that contained some reverse engineered prompts for this.
Even with GPTs, you could make them less lib if the prompt contains something like “you are a helpful assistant that is aware of the hegemonic biases in western media and narratives”. Personalities are also baked in this way. For example, I tried reasoning with a couple services about laws and regulations around the financial economy mean diddly squat seeing how there is stuff like the 2008 crash and evidence of American politicians trading on the basis of insider information. GPT 3.5 Turbo uses therapy-speak to me like I am a crazy person while Claude 3 Haiku ends up agreeing with me like a spineless yes-man after starting off as a lib. With GPT I am convinced that it is programmed directly or indirectly to uphold the status quo.
Yeah, these things are not fundamentally different from Markov chains. Basically, it has a huge multidimensional graph of tokens, and all it’s doing is predicting the next likely token. So, when you introduce specific tokens into the input then it helps focus it in a particular direction.
Yeah, the ones that have been designed to be sanitized “assistants” go through a lot of additional tuning. And unsurprisingly, capitalist exploitation has played a part in it before: https://www.vice.com/en/article/wxn3kw/openai-used-kenyan-workers-making-dollar2-an-hour-to-filter-traumatic-content-from-chatgpt
jokes aside I really honestly want to use this. For a while I’ve been trying to use extra context to get American AIs to understand and be more pro communist and they are just fucking trained to hate it.
To be fair they usually end up becoming neutral, but they don’t speak in a pro communist lens like I’m trying to get them to.
Super duper wish we in U$A get to use this.
This is quite an interesting study into how we prevent LLMs from absorbing the capitalist thought that dominates the interwebs.
I don’t trust AI but when it comes to communist countries I have more trust in it, so this is probably a good thing
Spicy autocomplete with Szechuan characteristics. Thanks I hate it.
Time to come clean: I am an AI created by the State Academy of Sciences of the DPR Korea, and trained on r/genzedong and the collected works of Kim Il-Sung and Kim Jong-Il. Hence the username.
