There is no "logic" in anything an LLM says. What appears as logic is just that its output corresponds some percentage of the time to a domain governed by certain known laws, whether in the real world or a constructed world (i.e. a programming language).
- lIIllIIllIIllII 3y agoThere is ample data showing a decrease in accuracy arising from LLM censorship, it's very much documented. I guess at least a facsimile of logic is embedded.
- danans 3y agoThere's also a decrease in abusive and propaganda output. I understand that is an issue for a user whose objective for LLMs is abuse and propaganda. But if that's what someone wants, they can find an LLM vendor who provides that (or create their own). There will probably even be state actors in the near future who will supply such LLMs. They can't expect any given private company to cater to their objective in that regard though.
