Then again I treat it like a calculator for words and not a therapist permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] mojofrododojo@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago as it should be, anyone with half a brain would reconsider their actions when prompted to self harm by a fucking executable. UNFORTUNATELY HERE WE ARE, in reality, where people are so fucking willing to turn off their once functional grey matter because the chat bot told them they were gonna be rich, famous, etc., So good for you, but also, look out for society, it's not only going to harm the ones it drives crazy, but the victims of that crazy as well. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Hackworth@piefed.ca 3 points 3 months ago (1 child) "Role-playing machine" is where it seems like the research is ending up. Language always has an implied communicator, and therefore an implied persona to adopt. LLMs are foremost maintaining a contextual role. Post-training is an attempt to keep them in the Assistant role, but (particularly as contexts get large) it's trivial to push them into nearly any role imaginable.
