Working prompt injections for frontier models are devised by applying brilliant pattern constructions. If models ever become useful for writing them, that would represent a massive intelligence leap and a major concern. As things stand, wi

What grift? I'm only reporting first-hand and second-hand anecdata -- some of which is observations from the "prompt whisperers" who follow in Pliny's circles. Chain of thought poses an existential risk to prompt injecti

It isn't fundamental. As the models begin to leverage test time compute more effectively, prompt injection becomes more difficult. The models are becoming more sophisticated at detecting the patterns of gibberish intended to sow confus

This reminds me of a similar idea I recently heard in podcast with Adam Brown. I'm unsure whether it is his original notion. The idea being, that if we can create AI that can derive special relativity (1905) from pre-Einstein books and

They have been monitoring their GPT Store for emergent killer applications with a user base worth targeting. Zuckerberg's playbook. Nothing yet, because they've been too short-sighted to implement custom tokens and unbounded UIs.

Thanks for digging that out. Yes, that makes sense to me as someone who made a fully local speech-2-speech prototype with Electron, including VAD and AEC. It was responsive but taxing. I had to use a mix of specialty models over onnx/w
