You jest, but this is actually how frustrating it is to try to use ChatGPT in the domains of crime/fraud/cybersecurity.
It called me out recently as attempting to write malware. Which is true, but it wouldn't accept the plain explanation that I am authorized to do this by my employer, for deployment on their machines. Stonewalling is just making everyone better at carefully-crafting their inquiries so as not to arouse suspicion. ("As an AI language model, I cannot help you with your task in writing arousing malware...")
Unless you dial it back to a Swadesh list or something, language is too complicated to be used as a firewall for itself. People have always been able to talk their way into anything. Our prevention efforts are just training better social engineers, who call themselves "prompt engineers" now.
- pksebben 3y agoTIL about Swadesh lists. It's not just a matter of complexity, either. Especially with English, you can say pretty much anything using any words - if you use the right combination of euphemism, analogy, poetic structure, context, etc. As always, attempts at censorship produce awkward to hilarious to depressing results.
