But I would warn anyone circumventing anti-LLM protections that, as the tide turns against #LLM usage and "#AI" as a whole, that it may become politically useful for some state AGs to score political points. Those political points may come by putting you in prison, or, at the very least, dumping lawyers on you and ruining your life. An AG doesn't need to win to score points for their political party or to virtue signal. All they need to do is build a case against you. Because the CFAA is *so vague* it's easy to make something plausible enough that it won't get thrown out immediately.
So if the gentile "please don't do that" isn't enough, maybe consider this.

Notes on the current LLM development toolchain I am using in June.

Using #llm to OCR is...interesting. I've been trying it on an old hand written card; and it does very well on stuff I can only just about read; but the mistakes are way more subtle than trad OCR; e.g. one misread a 'standard 6' rack' as a 'standard 19" rack' (the other said '61 rack' which is more obviously wrong). The same one also turned 'M/coil mike'…

#LLM #AI

Prompt Injection as Role Confusion
LLMs can't tell who's speaking. We show they identify roles by writing style, not tags, and exploit this with CoT Forgery, injecting fake reasoning that models mistake for their own thoughts.

Debian developer Antoine Le Gonidec just quit the project over its decision not to ban #LLM-assisted code contributions:
Pretending to have a "neutral stance" when faced with fascism is not neutrality, it’s active collaboration.

Source:

Whenever I use an #LLM it really annoys me it's offering multiple choices. So it puts the burden of checking and filtering out invalid responses back on me. It's practically impossible to follow a chain of thought in a conversation. Why did they call it a chat? Probably because it will always stay on the surface of things and never turn into a thoughtful discussion.

The thing about training an #LLM on human culture and then renting that culture back isn't that it's "Intellectual Property Theft." There's nothing wrong with sharing. There is something wrong with framing LLMs as piracy. That's a completely different concept.
When a powerful group of people takes the writing, the art, the music, various parts of a culture and then make some bland reproduction that lacks all the meaning and essence in the original, then those powerful people profit off that mess while the people who made the original stuff are erased, marginalized, and made to suffer, there is a different term for that.
The term everyone is looking for is "appropriation."
I'm not saying this is the same as other forms of cultural appropriation, but there are definitely enough shared elements that we should revisit that conversation. Perhaps some folks who thought the idea was silly when the idea first came up may feel differently now.

People often assume that LLM output is some kind of neutral "average" of "all knowledge" (or at least, most of the internet), and that perhaps it picks up and amplifies biases already present in the training data, but these are merely innate human biases to begin with. Already, that shouldn't be comforting, given how biased LLM resume-scanning systems are against female-sounding names, for example, but let's put that aside. We can actually see that LLMs also have intentionally engineered biases added to them in custom training steps:
You know all the LLM syncophancy? The way it agrees with whatever the user says, even if that contradicts itself, or something else the user said earlier? Where did that come from? How often in the internet pre-LLMs did you see someone disagree, only for the other person to immediately apologize and back down? Is that the average behavior on Reddit? On other internet forums? Even in private chat messages or on IRC?
In fact, the internet is legendary for the exact opposite behavior? Where did the collective reply-guy tendency of the training data go? It must have been painstakingly trained out of the model by OpenAI. There's a few viable approaches to this, but likely, it involved optimizing for continued conversation and/or some kind of "pleasantness" score, and that kind of optimization always has side effects. More to the point, if we know the big models are doing this kind of intentional tuning, there probably tuning for other stuff too, and in general, the output of the models is much closer to "things OpenAI wants it to say" than "things the internet would naturally have said" than we might suspect.

There's a new meat eating hype. Meat companies are telling everyone people would have more energy if they only ate more meat. Employers are getting huge meat lunches for their employees and expecting a productivity boost. Against their better judgement, employees are stuffing themselves with loads of meat and struggling to work. But eventually, they figure out how to eat more and be more productive. In the meantime, a lot of people (including meat eaters) are crying over the obvious climate and health harm, both from increased meat consumption and from increased waste as people throw away even more food.
Meat eaters now put up a big banners of what meat they like, and invite others to join them with meat. More people are becoming vocally vegan, or at least trying to limit their meat consumption. Some also put "vegan" or even more aggressive "no meat allowed" signs.
Some meat eaters think it's fine to bring offering of meat to a stranger if they didn't put up an explicit "vegan" sign yet. "I won't get offensed, I'll just throw it in the trash", they say. Some go even further and try to trick you by saying it's actually a vegan meat-lookalike.

retrofit — co-evolve source code and database schemas, safely
retrofit is the foundation under seismic source code and database schema changes. Ship new features faster and refactor away schema debt, safely.

The job of management boils down to deciding where to invest company resources to maximize returns.
But saying yes to one thing means saying no to something else. Deciding what gets cut (and getting buy-in for those decisions) is hard! So instead they started agitating for "velocity" in a foolish belief that they would never have to prioritize one idea over another ever again.

RE: #AI #LLM

Put in terms that might make sense to people who might disagree, an #LLM is a second order distillation. Reality trains the "models" of cognition via evolution. Those that don't die, evolve emotions to guide them towards or away from things. Humans evolved a complex enough system to construct internal models of reality.
Language jams all this stuff together into a(n extremely lossy) representation for transmitting it to other beings with similar direct access to reality. This becomes the first order distillation of experiential reality. Models trained on that corpus are then second order distillations (they are trained in the artifacts produced by the model trained by reality itself).
A lot of things, like threat modeling, require you to tap into that first order model.

Thinking about some things that @… said in another thread, and as someone who advocates against AI hype and against the use of most generative AI in most circumstances, I feel it's important to say: many of the ethical issues with using generative AI mirror almost directly the ethical issues with living/working on land stolen by colonists, except that they're less harmful.
Arguments like "well we don't really know whose work it's ripping off this time" and "artists that post their art online know it's going to be looked at; this is the same thing" and "well it's inevitable and everyone's doing it so it's unreasonable to make a big deal about it" directly echo arguments like "well now we don't know whose land it was any more exactly" (yes, we do; you can literally go look up the website of their descendants), or "the natives weren't really using the land anyways", or "it's all in the past now, and it's unavoidable." That unavoidable one is actually somewhat true of using stolen land, at least compared to LLM usage.
If you can see through those lies in the case of AI hype but choose not to do so in the case of colonialism, that says something about your priorities and allegiances.
This is not at all a call for people to talk less about AI; rather it's a call for those who take opposing AI hype seriously to look around and make some noise about other injustices too (I realize many of you already do this).

Let's say you're building a house. Normally this involves hiring a whole bunch of experts (either directly or via some company). You need to pay a fair wage for their labor, and you have to pay for all the material they're going to use. Some of them will be more experienced than others. They will sometimes make a mistake. They will sometimes get sick. The whole construction work will probably take a few months, and may get delayed in the process. Some construction material will be wasted. There's also a risk that over the next years, you'll discover that they screwed something up, and have to fix it. But you'll get a reasonably good house.
Now, a kid comes and tells you you don't have to do this. Instead of paying all these people, you can hire him. He's wearing a suit and sunshades. He never laid a brick in his whole life. But he's got this new great technology that will give you a great house in no time. Of course it will cost you, but not as much as the labor of all these people. You try to learn more, and you discover that the technology actually builds and razes a hundred of house-like things a day, until it gets close enough to something that actually resembles a house. There's a lot of wasted energy and material, but you don't have to worry because it's all subsidized (for the time being). You pay less, you get a house that looks just right on the outside and inside, and that seems to work just right.
Of course, there's a real risk that in a few months you'll discover that something is wrong. You may have to pay a lot for a real expert to figure out how things were done, and how to fix them. Or they may not be able to help you. You may be stuck having to call the suit again, and he'll happily come and fix it for you. And by "fix", I mean he will just raze a whole part of the house and start randomly spitting it out again until he gets something that looks about right, and works about right. Of course, it may not really be a good fit for the rest of the house, but you don't want to pay for replacing the whole thing, do you? It may also introduce a completely new issues that will surface in a few months, but that's just how it is.

Designers talk a big game about "empathy" for users. But empathy without respect is nothing more than pity.
And nowhere is the lack of respect more apparent than in how LLMs have been productized and adopted. The "human in the loop" excuse pushes consequences down onto scrupulous employees and ultimately onto the very users on whom we claim to be centered.
