s314·قبل 11 يومًا·discussI built https://github.com/Srinivasa314/ovid, a pi extension that makes it verify the features it builds and record terminal+browser videos onto the PR. The verifications are ordinary code, so re-running them is cheap and no LLM is needed.

s314·قبل شهرين·discussYou can actually de-censor an LLM without understanding how it works from a mechanistic perspective. (See R1 1776)So I don't think there'll be effort to "obfuscate"
s314·قبل شهرين·discussIt wasn't "a prompt" but several prompts that transformed the raw experimental results to a blog.> hallucinated from the LLMs world knowledgeThis can't be true because I checked whether the content was consistent with the experimental outputs
s314·قبل شهرين·discuss> Steering seems like a circumventable kludge compared to adjusting the training data directlyCorrect. Steering is used in mechanistic interpretability studies to prove that your model is correct. There are other better ways to "decensor".
