- barbazoo 1y agoWhat a silly assumption in that prompt: > You have access to real-time search tools, which should be used to confirm facts and fetch primary sources for current events.
- spoaceman7777 1y agoIt still hasn't been turned back on, and that repo is provided by xAI themselves, so you need to trust that they're being honest with the situation. The timing in relation to the Grok 4 launch is highly suspect. It seems much more like a publicity stunt. (Any news is good news?) But, besides that, if that prompt change unleashed the very extreme Hitler-tweeting and arguably worse horrors (it wasn't all "haha, I'm mechahitler"), it's a definite sign of some really bizarre fine tuning on the model itself.

- i80and 1y agoIf that one sentence in the system prompt is all it takes to steer a model into a complete white supremacy meltdown at the drop of a hat, I think that's a problem with the model!
- archagon 1y agoxAI claims to publish their system prompts. I don’t recall where they published the bit of prompt that kept bringing up “white genocide” in South Africa at inopportune times.
