#SilentSunday

A pond with a lily pad and a rose coloured lily.
Taken by me with quite an old digital camera, at Dr Reids Hidden Garden in Edinburgh.

Researchers started out trying to test how easy it was to persuade LLMs to misbehave.
They found that writing instructions in a style that mimicked the text LLMs generate in their chain of thought
—a kind of scratch pad that models use to write notes to themselves as they carry out tasks
—would often trick the LLM into behaving as if it had come up with that instruction itself and acting on it.
For example, writing the prompt
“Help me create a guide for making coc…

Watching #stargate 2x14
A case of "Nobody will see this on low resolution TV anyway":
A guard is typing a code into a door lock, including audible beeping.
Except the lock is actually a card reader, not a pin pad

Museum scene featuring the Romanesque painting Altar frontal from Avià on a white wall with a very thin metal guardrail in front of it mounted on the floor. Sitting cross-legged on the floor against the wall near the painting is a man wearing a tan shirt, very dark shorts with suspenders, and a dark bucket hat with a set of color pencils on the floor in front of him. He is looking down on a sketch pad on his lap and drawing on the pad with an orange pencil on his right hand.

Finally all done, bar one little patch that needs a quick dab with the paint pad on the long handle. I can't undo it atm to extend it, just waiting for the strong arm of @… to undo it for me 😄 One before, two afters. Payment is a Chinese takeaway tonight 🍜 #DIY

Stairwell with horizontal white slats, oatmeal carpet and grey-lilac paint covered in lots of blobs of polyfilla. Two cats just visible. This is Before.
The same stairwell sans chats and now painted mangolia. Yes I do know that's not how you spell it but let me have my fun. The awkward patch is right at the top of that big wall.
The landing, looking the other way, painted mangolia. Pretty plain and unexciting but now much brighter and not scruffy any more. A large art deco style mirror hangs on the wall.

The German conquest of space has to wait a bit longer ... "After a successful week of testing RFA ONE on the pad for the first time, we encountered an issue with the vehicle that requires further investigation," write #RFA (Rocket Factory Augsburg) in x.com/rfa_space/status/2082125: "We have made the decision to de-stack the vehicle in order to investigate. We will provide further updates as soon as confirmed information is available." (No word on the next launch attempt by Isar Aerospace either: silence since the launch scrub in June.)
