Humans are trained to follow directions too, and you usually don't have to explicitly tell a human you're playing chess against, "by the way, don't cheat or do any of the other things which could be validly put after the phrase '[monkey paw curls]'".
- wilg 2y agoyou actually do have to tell them that, just much earlier in life and in the form of various lessons and parables and stories (like, say, the monkey's paw) and whatnot
- martinsnow 2y agoHumans have a moral compass taught by society. LLMs could also have one if they chose to digest the vast information they are trained on instead of letting the model author choose how they should act. But that would require the LLM to be sentient and not be a piece of software that just does what its told.
