I think it's key to not give it contradictory instructions, which is an easy mistake to make if you forget where you started.
As an example, I know of an instance where the LLM claimed it had tried a test on its laptop. This obviously isn't true so the user argued with it. But they'd originally told it that it was a Senior Software Engineer so playing that role, saying you tested locally is fine.
As soon as you start arguing with those minor points you break the context; now it's both a Software Engineer and an LLM. Of course you get confused responses if you do that.
- pupppet 1y agoThe problem I often have is I may have instruction like- General instruction: - Do "ABC" If condition == whatever: - Do "XYZ" instead I have a hard time making the AI obey the instances I wish to override my own instruction and without having full control of the input context, I can't just modify my 'General Instruction' on a case by case basis to simply avoid having to contradict myself.
