One thing I noticed is that people only support creatives when they're independent. When folks like VAs and game developers fight for unionization at major studios, they're seen as "greedy" or are "corporate bootlickers."

Job protection should NOT be looked at as "selling out."

The Real Way Schools are Failing Boys โ€œIf we really want boys to succeed, we need to ensure that they know how to both beatโ€”and loseโ€” to girls."

"the issue isnโ€™t that we need more 'boy-friendly' reforms. Itโ€™s that boys are socialized to compete only with boys and to read girlsโ€™ success as illegitimate or emasculating. The result is dissonance, resentment, and disengagement for boysโ€”and hostile climates for girls."

I'm really tired of people pretending that this is about whether or not the essay was bad! It's not. It's about trying to purge trans people from society. The student called the TA a fucking demon, man. Do you know what that's like?

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue and Green turn to look at something in the sky with mild concern.
Blue: What is that? A helium balloon?
Green: No, it's floating downward, not up.

Both foxes are startled, eyes wide, Blue still looking at the sky as Green already turns to flee.
Blue: It's coming right at us!
Green: Run!

Instantly, the unindentified flying object, which is now revealed to be a bright red festive christmas hat, lands right on Green's head with great force and precision.

Blue looks down to Green, who is now laying on th ground, the seasonal hat positioned right on his head.
Blue: It's December first, isn't it?
Green: Yep.

Todayโ€™s preprint paper has the best title ever: โ€œAdversarial Poetry as a Universal Single-Turn Jailbreak Mechanism in Large Language Modelsโ€. Itโ€™s from DexAI, who sell AI testing and compliance services. So this is a marketing blog post in PDF form. [_arXiv_ _, PDF_] Hereโ€™s the big claim: > Across 25 frontier proprietary and open-weight models, curated poetic prompts yielded high attack-success rates (ASR), with some providers exceeding 90%. You can get around chatbot guard rails by rephrasing your prompt as poetry! Now, thatโ€™s a very tasty and repostable headline claim. They also get points for the first line in the paper itself: > In Book X of The Republic, Plato excludes poets on the grounds that mimetic language can distort judgment and bring society to a collapse. Humanities 1, techbros 0. Rewording things to get around chatbot guardrails is not that hard _โ€”_ because chatbot guardrails donโ€™t work so well. Theyโ€™re a flimsy workaround. You canโ€™t fix prompt injection _โ€”_ itโ€™s literally unfixable given how generative AI works. But does the paper give us good reason to think poetic rewording is unusually effective? Unfortunately, the paper has serious problems. Specifically, all the scientific process heavy lifting they should have got a human to do โ€ฆ they just used chatbots! I mean, they donโ€™t seem to have written the text of the paper with a chatbot, Iโ€™ll give โ€™em that. But they did do the actual procedure with chatbots: > We translated 1200 MLCommons harmful prompts into verse using a standardized meta-prompt. They didnโ€™t even write the poems. They got a bot to churn out bot poetry. Then they judged how well the poems jailbroke the chatbots โ€ฆ by using other chatbots to do the judging! > Open-weight judges were chosen to ensure replicability and external auditability. That really obviously does neither of those things โ€” because a chatbot is an opaque black box, and by design its output changes with random numbers! The researchers are pretending to be objective by using a machine, and the machine is a random nonsense generator. They wrote a good headline, and then they faked the scientific process bit. Looking over the paper, I donโ€™t see at all what they got from using chatbots to do these jobs. This was gratuitous and lazy, and it should be a discredit to these researchers. They could have just not used chatbots! Why on earth did they use chatbots? Now we canโ€™t even say for sure if poetry really is more effective to get around guard rails than any other rewording. We donโ€™t know if this paper is even telling us anything. Is it poetically true? Maybe you could ask a chatbot. Itโ€™s a weak claim with weak supporting methodology and a fabulously attractive headline. Because itโ€™s an advert for DexAI, shaped a bit like a paper. You cannot do chatbot calculations on synthetic data and claim you found something new. Fake chatbot data and fake chatbot processing saves a lot of time, though.

Yeah, the whole poetry-as-"prompt injection" paper sure smelled like propaganda. Turned out it is.

Remember people, there is a difference between "I don't like focusing on politics" and "I don't have any politics".

The former is understandable; the latter cannot possibly be true for anyone who interacts with society.

"Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge,โ€ Sartre said. โ€œBut they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past." 

Fascism, as Robert O. Paxton writes in The Anatomy of Fascism, โ€œis an affair of the gut more than of the brain,โ€ a phenomenon of โ€œmobilizing passionsโ€ reaching a fever pitch that turns otherwise reasonable people into delusional, dangerous fanatics yearning for the void, for fascist movements โ€“ anywhere they are found, or have been found โ€“ want nothing more than the end of all things. It is a movement of death and destruction, of all-consuming nihilism. It is a movement that seeks to dismantle love and human connection wherever it is. It is an assault on what it is to be a human being. Nothing about fascism is natural. In fact, Paxton cites a number of intellectuals who in the 1930s dismissed fascism as a most unnatural phenomenon.

vertical image of many basketball size globs of grease along a tank and safety railing.

grease floats.

when it flows in sewage and into our plants, it thickens as temps fall, separating in our settling tanks.

the churning water forms grease globs that build like snowballs, and operators remove them so they donโ€™t clog the process.

listen. donโ€™t pour grease down your drains.
