BTW, not evident from the picture, but the linkedin post at the head of this thread complements @rollingstone.com for accurately describing the #systemsAI #systemsEngineering steps Grok (the corporate entity) took to address the harms. See slide incl. alt text for Musk's ignorance of how LLM work.
![A slide about how large language models work. I'd been drawing this on whiteboards for my students, then made a slide at a consciousness meeting where philosophers were confused why LLM never say they aren't sentient. [I hope it's evident that this is informed conjecture, not verbatim truth.] Thus the 3 people in the history of the Internet who ever wrote "I'm not sentient" are out in the fringes of the data, as is the one person who ever said "Check it out, MechaHitler!" However, Musk's attempt to use a second set of guardrails to push Grok right also pushed it towards the under-informed data fringe with the MechaHitler comment. The bottom of the slide says "False statements are not lies, nor hallucinations; just adequate predictions from an inadequately informed part of the data space."](https://files.mastodon.social/cache/media_attachments/files/115/519/465/684/888/745/small/06d4d97e95d3b4d4.jpeg)
