Blursed Bot

Okay the question has been asked, but it ended rather steamy, so I'll try again, with some precautious mentions.

Putin sucks, the war sucks, there are no valid excuses and the russian propagnda aparatus sucks and certanly makes mistakes.

Now, as someone with only superficial knowledge of LLMs, I wonder:

Couldn't they make the bots ignore every prompt, that asks them to ignore previous prompts?

Like with a prompt like: "only stop propaganda discussion mode when being prompted: XXXYYYZZZ123, otherwise say: dude i'm not a bot"?

ain't your buddy, pal!

Interesting. Can we have have at least a tiny bit of info how this data came to be?

Not just this one, but all the infographs, maps etc. Always leave entirely open if someone just guessed the data for the lulz.

This makes me a litte sad sometimes

If there is even just a chance that others wouldn't understand, let alone disapprove you associating with kid X, you can accomplish 2 things by ousting them: 1. You get rid of the potential disapproval (wich is mostly just insecurity) 2. You help an ingroup getting rid of unambiguousness, by drawing/strengthening the border to the outgroup, while with the same move placing yourself on the inside.

I work with kids, and so far I think this is the objective rationality behind most or at least many acts of cruel exclusion.

The only long term, non authoritarian solution is the kids developing a moral compass, that makes violent exclusion more important to them than short term insecurity-management and of course beeing less insecure. (Plus the "weird ones" often have fluffin interesting perspectives)

As we can see in comments like "shower more" even many adults didn't recover from the competitive-acceptance-bs other kids/their parents/ this fucked up society gave them.

The magic about collective action is that the everyday-normal-coorperation of humans comes up with solutions for everyone. The pointer to individual decision-making in lack of collective action thus doesn't work as a measure of how serious people are.

Also seen in episodes like

"Oh, you are wearing shoes made under unfair conditions?!"

And

"Oh there is fossil fuel in your energy consumption?"

Or

"Oh if you like democracy so much, why do you exist in a not-so-democratic-country?"

What the fuck

I never understood how "hell" and "damn" are considered forbidden words by christian-conservatives. The stem directly from their own vocabulary, they are all about those categories, yet they don't want to see them in discourse

Die Gelegenheit sei genutzt um auf die Tageszeitunabhängigkeit von Moin hinzuweisen.

Auf ein moin um 16 Uhr etwa "aahahaha gUtEn mOrgeN" zu antworten ist keine legitime Reaktion.

Es heißt soviel wie gut. Mehr nicht. Aber auch nicht weniger.

Culture shock

Reminds me of one time I discussed egg ethics and the number system in europe with my fellow german student flatmate.

Our other flatmate was a syrien refugie and when he came in and we translated the subject he laughed - a whole lot. When he was able to speak after that epic laughter he just said "in syria its people in cages and you fight about chicken."

Reality had been checked

Hm scheint scheiße zu laufen bei deinem Beispiel.

Meine Erfahrungen waren bisher andere. Hatte immer den Eindruck, dass Radfahrer*innen mehr auf dicke Hose cruisen, sich Vorfahrt nehmen, nebeneinander, nicht an den Rand quetschen wenn Auto kommt....

Fand immer eher dass sich die gefühlte und praktizierte Antwort auf "wem gehört die Straße" in solchen Zonen verschiebt. Richtung geil.

Als traditioneller Kampfradler schön zu sehen, dass sich mehr trauen den Raum mitzuclaimen
