There have been a few recent instances where Grok has been tuned to spew out white supremacist dreck that should be political anathema--most notably the "but let's talk about white genocide" phase a few months ago and more recently spewing out Nazi antisemitism. Now granted, those were probably caused more by the specific prompts being used than the underlying model, but if the owner is willing to twist its output to evince a particular political bias, what trust do you have that he isn't doing so to the actual training data?

- archagon 1y agoWho was responsible for the "kill the Boer" dreck? Were they disciplined? Did they get fired? Why don't we know that?

Elon explicitly ordering this? Press X to doubt.

- virgildotcodes 1y agoAre you asking in good faith why non-sequiturs that stoke racism shouldn't be injected into unrelated twitter threads? Even related twitter threads, do you want interracial hatred to be increased? Here's why it should be banned, because it leads to this shit: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Holocaust https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Holocaust https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavery https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavery https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rwandan_genocide https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rwandan_genocide https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apartheid https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apartheid https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armenian_genocide https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armenian_genocide https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaza_genocide https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaza_genocide https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_731 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_731 How can people be so fucking stupid that they want to be coy about recreating the most shameful atrocities in human history? Teenage idiots a few years removed without any understanding of the world beyond their nose and brains turned to putrid rot. The direction that right wing reactionaries are taking the world in could not possibly be more disgusting and pathetic.
