Thanks for the source so I can put this into context (which is the context of Russian disinformation, not grassroots beliefs representative of the anti-vax movement).

I think you are (subconsciously) strawmanning the anti-vax movements like Querdenker. Most of these believe that mandatory vaccination (or reducing freedom of unvaccinated, or making it economically infeasible/required to work) is bad

Around 12k fatal outcomes have been reported in the EU after vaccination, but it is not certain in all cases that vaccines were the cause. The vaccine tracking chips come from two Microsoft (-affiliate) patents, one about using chips to tra

Current AIs are RLHFd to avoid being a "yes man"/sycophant. The point about employing better prompting is well taken. Don't ask "Who was the first female president?", ask "Was there ever a female president

We use "confabulation". It is a feature, not a bug. "confabulation" could be "solved" when LLMs realize they are uncertain on a reply and making things up. But that requires the LLM saying "I don't kn

You've seen the demos of a couple holding hands and walking, or the museum shots where all the paintings maintain coherence, or a woman temporarily obscuring a street sign. Or you haven't seen those demos. Either way...

I feel LeCun got roped in debating the likes of Marcus and Yudkowsky. This has made his arguments lose nuance and become rigid. I also can't escape the feeling that if Facebook was tuned into Transformers, they would have shipped earli

If these were copyrighted works, how did these end up in the public comparison dataset? Sure, some copyrighted works ended up in the Pile by accident. You can download these directly, without the elaborate "poem" trick.

If there are guardrails in place not to output sensitive data (good practice anyway), then how would this technique suddenly bypass that? I still have trouble seeing a direct threat or attack scenario here. If it is privacy sensitive data t

I suspect ChatGPT is using a form of clean-room design to keep copyrighted material out of the training set of deployed models. One model is trained on copyrighted works in a jurisdiction where this is allowed and outputs "transformati

If ChatGPT ever outputs other user's chat history, the company is as good as dead. If that could be exploited using this technique that is out in the wild for over a year: show me the data.

In certain circumstances, I could see that. Then again, if you have access to a model trained on sensitive data, why not ask the model directly, instead of probing it for training data? If sensitive data never is meant to be reasoned on and

Good point. But many are already directly training on output from GPT. Probably more efficient than copying the raw training data. Especially if it relies on this non-targeted approach.

That is a pretty convoluted and expensive way to use ChatGPT as an internet search. I see the vulnerability, but I do not see the threat. I've seen it "exploited" way back when ChatGPT was first introduced, and a similar tric

You can not scientifically state there is no connection between vaccines and autism. That is just a reminder of the limits of empirical science and the impossibility of proving a negative. It is important to be nuanced here and respect the
