OpenClaw runs with an Anthropic/OpenAI API key though?
- macintux 8mo agoI think they’re describing a difference in chat behavior vs API. The API must have fewer protections/be more raw.
- varenc 8mo agoYea pretty confused by this statement. Though also I'm pretty sure if you construct the right fake scenario[0] you can get the regular Claude/ChatGPT interfaces to write something like this. [0] (fiction writing, fighting for a moral cause, counter examples, etc)
- basketbla 8mo agoProbably pretty big difference in system prompt from using the apps vs hitting the api, not that that’s necessarily what’s happening here. + I think openclaw supports other models / its open source and it would be pretty easy to fork and add a new model provider.
- zahlman 8mo agoWhy wouldn't the system prompt be controlled on the server side of the API? I agree with https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47010577 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47010577 ; I think results like this more likely come from "roleplaying" (lightweight jailbreaking).
- Kwpolska 8mo agoThe websites and apps probably have a system prompt that tells them to be more cautious with stuff like this, so that AIs look more credible to the general public. APIs might not.
