And then when China eventually produce not only RAM but the equipment to make it, it'll be shocked Pikachu all round.

I don't think I'm especially stupid and I try very hard not to interact with ads more then I have to, but I have often found it impossible to escape those ads without ending up being delivered to the app store page.

Maybe I didn't notice the X in some part of the display or whatever, but even if by making a concerted effort to not do it, you still "convert", their click though stats must be crazy.

What actual training data does contain threats of punishment like this? It's not like most of the web has explicit threats of punishment followed immediately by compliance.

And only the shlockiest fan fiction would have "Do what I want or you'll be punished!" "Yes master, I obey without question".

Internet forums contain numerous examples of rules followed by statements of what happens if you don’t follow them, followed by people obeying them.

Labelling laws are Unamerican and that's why inhibiting other countries from requiring clear food labelling is a clear part of the American trade negotiation platform.

I don't think laws would be much different.

Leaking system prompts being classed as a vulnerability always seems like a security by obscurity instinct.

If the prompt (or model) is wooly enough to allow subversion, you don't need the prompt to do it, it might just help a bit.

Or maybe the prompts contain embarrassing clues as to internal policy?

The best part is if you consider it a vulnerability, it is one you can't fix.

It reminds me of SQL injection techniques where you have to exfiltrate the data using weird data types. Like encoding all emails as dates or numbers using (semi) complex queries.

If the L(L)M has the data, it can provide it back to you, maybe not verbatim, but certainly can in some format.

> I'm surprised they even reviewed it enough to catch it

Maybe they forgot to tack it onto 5000 pages of unrelated legislation at 10pm the night before the vote.

Why not make it a condition of the vote in the first place? Don't understand it? No vote for you. If your constituency wanted a say, they can let you know what they think about that.

do you want to incentivize introducing bills that are intentionally incomprehensible.

for anybody who can't pass the test on understanding - default "No" vote. That would incentivize the opposite - straight to understand bills.

There is a solution. Spread-spectrum methods for digging out signals from deep in the noise floor. It's just maths, but the amount of noise you can reject that way is really nuts.

I disagree here. I find it much faster to read the speed from a digital speedo than an analogue one (especially as most cars compress the road legal range into under half the dial).

Especially in a 20 zones, a few mph is just a tiny needle movement but you definitely can get a ticket for it.

Analogue is better when your want to see something moving through the range though.

It's very strange, especially on Hacker News.

What's stranger to me, assuming these kids are in classrooms with analogue clocks, is that they aren't constantly subdividing the clock face in every more complex mental schemes in boring lessons. "Just 2 more minutes, and then we'll be exactly 5/8 of the way through the second half of the lesson."

Maybe I am the weird one here.
