Still not worried. My optimistic take is that LLMs fix this by forcing schools to reorganize around a more Socratic method / Harkness table approach, especially regarding the humanities. Language arts classes are restructured around how LLMs work under the hood, where students are specifically taught semantics and how to write good prompts (which is just a distillation of how to write good essays). To wit apropos of nothing I mean which to say: in the future all students will be philosopher kings and queens. And this will give rise to newer, more sophisticated problems that we’ll still be able to blame high schools for.

revisiting more of 2022’s hits when I think about Justin Sun, I just shake my head in disbelief and admire the resilience https://www.theverge.com/c/22947663/justin-sun-tron-cryptocurrency-poloniex

Alright. Problem solved. This actually works for Opus, GPT-4.1, GPT-4.5, and especially o3. Will try Sonnet and DeepSeek V3 later. Now we’re just testing how long they can stick to the instructions for, because last year’s models would tend to forget after a few thousand tokens.

Maybe we just need better satirists, because whatever your satire’s trying to say, the audience only ever hears, “Don’t think about elephants.”

It’s fucked up that successful satire is always successful once it’s taken at face value, so you need to satirize the satire.

I was either thinking about the “Bad Blood” section of Rimbaud’s A Season in Hell at the time, or about writing a parody of Fight Club.

laughing remembering the first line to a (satirical) novel i once envisioned: “My father taught me to be weak, and my mother taught me to be cruel.”

incredibly: to sound like gpt-4-1106-preview @ temperature: 1.0, I have to set gpt-4.1 wayyy down to 0.2 but 4 doesn’t even begin to sound like 4.1 @ temperature: 0.7(!) until you set it way up to 1.5(!) ….which is also where GPT-4 tends to do the honorable thing & start speaking gibberish instead.

maybe all i need to do…I read somewhere a lot time ago that ChatGPT was set to 0.7 temperature. Based on a few repeated tests in the API, 0.7 still seems about right. The temperature is definitely less than 1, anyway. This doesn’t fix the problem tho, it reduces it by 30%.

Insane hell world. I'll just do a DPO fine-tune that literally uses GPT-4 Turbo responses as the "correct" examples and GPT-4.1 responses as the "incorrect" examples. I have enough saved chats that I could throw one together real quick. Why not. It doesn't have to be great, it just has to show improvement.
