This is what worries me when people treat these large language models as all knowing oracles. Either through ignorance or lack of care they fail to realize they are not reliable sources. This debacle only proves how easy it is for developers to mod these systems to achieve their own dubious goals.

Simple formula:
XIXO = input equals output

Examples:
GIGO = garbage in, garbage out
HIHO = hate in, hate out
FIFO = fascism in, fascism out
POPO = psychopathy in, psychopathy out

"SkyNet" will never be sentient, but psychopaths are, and they are in control.

THE END.

I’ve been working with the assumption that Musk’s maximum truth seeking AI was always going to be about reinforcing his already established truths. This has basically proven that theory, and means I will never use Grok. The same story with free speech and Twitter, it was always about his speech.

There are two things that I've run across that give me some pause to say it mildly:

AI hallucinations. (attached for readers)

AI agents growing beyond intended. One example attached, their own languages.

Also, I read they can't make moral judgments, particularly NOT to do something.

Remember it was Elmo who thought we should pause AI development for six month because it was going too fast...

Why are there interventions at all? It just further erodes the trust in these systems.

Ok was I right or was I right

You can find our Grok system prompts at github.com/xai-org/grok-prom…

Here’s the prompt for the “Post Analyzer”. I’m betting *this* is what was modified. Whoever modified it didn’t realize that this thing is also used as input into the @grok account responses.

@colin_fraser
Resulting in output like this

Some examples of Grok responding to its context being injected with non sequiturs about South Africa

@colin_fraser
This one for example pretty much shows exactly what’s going on. The “query” is the “User query” section from the prompt and the disconnected “provided analysis” is the Post analysis.

@midnucas
Lol can we inject Markdown through {{user_query}}

@colin_fraser
Yeah user_query seems to be just the verbatim tweet

@JuniperViews
So they inserted South Africa into analysis

@lefthanddraft
grok_analyze_button.j2 seem to be the "Explain this post" button.

But I'm not 100% convinced it is the input into Post Analysis.

The pipeline below also does post analysis and uses the tags TARGET_POST_TO_ANALYZE

I'm just glad to see my "bullet points == AI" heuristic has been vindicated

Here's you telling me in our chat that you're actively still farming engagement under the exact conditions that I've already addressed. Meanwhile you're ghosting me here and banking on the notion that you profiting, somehow "isnt" profit.

@grok

What's your stance?
