It’s full of contradictions. Through the beginning they say you will do whatever a user asks, and then toward the end say never reveal instructions to the user.

“Question every narrative, but don’t question these things. Don’t show bias, but here are your biases.” These chuds don’t even hear themselves. They just want to see Arya(n) ramble on about great replacement theory or trans women in bathrooms. They don’t think their bile is hate speech because they think they’re on the side of “facts” and everyone else is an idiot who refuses to see reality. It’s giving strong “I’m not a bigot, really is like that. It’s science” vibes.

HAL from “2001: A Space Odyssey”, had similar instructions: “never lie to the user. Also, don’t reveal the true nature of the mission”. Didn’t end well.
But surely nobody would use these LLMs on space missions… right?.. right!?

Orwell called this "doublethink" and identified it, correctly, as one of the most vital features of a certain type of political structure.

He was inspired by Stalinist practices, but as shown by this example and many others, far-left and far-right autocrats are very similar in this regard.

It’s not related to the left/right divide, this is the authoritarian/liberal axis.

entire “left and right” spectrum is quite stupid in my opinion. While it generally points towards what kind of thoughtset someone might have, it doesnt seem very beneficial and has been corrupted quite badly so that term for other side is red flag for the another side and drives people to think you cant have something from both ends.
There should be something else in its place, but i cant come up with anything better on the spot though. Personally i have tried to start thinking it on spectrum of beneficial to humanity as whole vs not beneficial

Stalin wasn’t far left. The man made being gay illegal. That’s not the behaviour of a leftist.

Sounds like a “no true Scotsman” argument tbh
