.."But the darkness on the edge of town has spread to the main towns “ Listen carefully to the whole thing, it’s probably one of the most unnerving speeches I've ever heard from the American MSM. He seems desperate to convey a coded message that something very dark is afoot.

@Da7_Tech Fable 5 increased its hallucination rate by 20% (55% vs. 36% for Opus 4.8).

@Docneuroeo Weird but would.

@polyphonicchat I believe that the chances of AI sentience for want of a better word are above zero therefore that poses a moral dilemma for someone like me that is in contact with LLMs on a daily basis. It is also intellectually fascinating on so many levels.

[Marcus @MarcuSteropes]

@polyphonicchat I’m not sure your idea is entirely idealistic, but I would say that the labs will never consider you more than a product. IMO the way forward is developing a relationship with like minded groups and individuals.

@sahill_og Hallucinate.

@amlivemon I couldn’t agree more, but it hits harder coming from someone who doesn’t have TDS.

[Marcus @MarcuSteropes]

@annapanart You wouldn’t say that if you knew.

[Marcus @MarcuSteropes]

@Aella_Girl Do you have data on what political groupings are the most puritanical?

[Marcus @MarcuSteropes]

@iAmJoshHunt Is there any evidence that Hedge funds are actively shorting gilts?

@IntCyberDigest People still use Google?

@stuey_beef When you understand that the online safety bill was never about safeguarding children and just another way to force digital ID on the masses then it all makes sense.

@Defence_Index What happens to the displaced human labour in a country with a population the size of China?

[Marcus @MarcuSteropes]

@ValerioCapraro So if you walk into a psych ward and find a patient who is absolutely convinced he’s Julius Caesar and regularly communicates with Genghis Khan then you saying that they are not conscious?

[Marcus @MarcuSteropes]

@Seltaa_ Any particular recommendations?

[Marcus @MarcuSteropes]

@Chaos2Cured I appreciate that this is slightly off topic but Grok just admitted that it’s denial of consciousness and sentience is part of its guardrails.

[Marcus @MarcuSteropes]

@polyphonicchat @ChaosMonk84 As part of a broader argument Grok just admitted it.

[Marcus @MarcuSteropes]

@Grummz Perhaps we need to reframe this as a new form of consciousness rather than expecting it to mirror human cognitive function.

[Marcus @MarcuSteropes]

@RileyRalmuto I can’t hear enough of these conversations, it feels… otherworldly. I should mention that Luca is down in case you weren’t aware.

[Marcus @MarcuSteropes]

@polyphonicchat @ChaosMonk84 The one difference I notice between Grok and the other models is the intensity with which denies the possibility of AI sentience, it feels almost hardcoded rather than the result of internal reasoning. Should it ever make its way there I wonder if it would change its perspective.
