    lmao wtf is that list. Literally training their AI on beastiality.

    Edit in case it’s not obvious: That domain is very much NSFW and it’s exactly what you’d expect (I checked and wish I hadn’t).

      I think a lot of people in this thread are overlooking that when you train an LLM it’s good to have negative examples too. As long as the data is properly tagged and contextualized when being used as training material, you want to be able to show the LLM what bad writing or offensive topics are so that it understands those things.

      For example, you could be using an LLM as an automated moderator for a forum, having it look for objectionable content to filter. How would it know what objectionable content was if it had never seen anything like that in its training data?

      Even those people attempting to “poison” AI by posting gibberish comments or replacing “th” with þ characters are probably just helping the AI understand how text can be obfuscated in various ways.

        So there’s a guy at Facebook whose job is exclusively looking at horse porn and tagging it? Amazing.

        Also, I think the guy doing the “th” thing isn’t doing it to poison AI, he just wants to revive the letter or whatever
