Wonder how Elon is going to explain this away.
All this has done is pushed Grok waaaaaay down the list of preferred AI chat bots. They are all untrustworthy but Grok is clearly egregiously so.
- tastyface 1y agoI think this is the future of *all* AI chat bots, especially ones with owners who are allied with authoritarian political regimes (e.g. Sam Altman, Mark Zuckerberg, Liang Wenfeng). They're a fantastic way to disseminate propaganda.
- mostlysimilar 1y agoAre they? If this is his best effort at forcing his bot to spout lies, it doesn't seem to be a great strategy.
- malfist 1y agoThis time was ham fisted for sure. But next time could be more subtle. Never assume your opponent will always be stupid
- bdangubic 1y agoit doesn't matter really, his general audience will eat this and everything else up, subtleness would not be a feature but a bug
- foogazi 1y ago> If this is his best effort at forcing his bot to spout lies Who says it is the best effort ? Who says it’s the only consequence of a poisoned prompt? If it has been tampered with on this what other answers are affected ?
- ceejayoz 1y agoThe first spam email was pretty basic, too.
- UncleMeat 1y agoYep. It is remarkably clear that AI chatbots take the existing open web, hide it behind a wall owned by a single institution, and provides the largest ever capacity for controlling public opinion in history. The fact that we are trending towards replacing the search experience (which does have plenty of its own problems, but not nearly as many) with this is going to concentrate such an enormous amount of power behind whoever wins this that we should be very concerned.
- GuinansEyebrows 1y agothis situation is a particularly egregious example but i don't trust that we're not already there in more subtle cases with other AI chat bots/models.
