    In the case of current LLMs, we can tell. These LLMs are not black boxes to us. It is hard to follow the threads of their decisions because these decisions are just some hodgepodge of statistics and randomness, not because they are very intricate thoughts.

    We can’t compare the outputs, probably, but compute the learning though. Imagine a human with all the literature, ethics, history, and all kind of texts consumed like that LLMs, no amount of trick questions would have tricked him to believe in racial cleansing or any such disconcerting ideas. LLMs read so much, and learned so little.




  • Is it necessary to burn any text?

    Let’s say, you want to simply show your hate. Is it healthy?

    Or, you want to fight against the hateful things preached in a text. Does a text, or philosophy get animated by itself? Can they really harm without the help of their followers? They can’t. Some must adhere to them. Burning won’t help. Ideas are not only bulletproof but burning proof too. If anything does, that is education.

    Or, do you want to hurt the followers? Is hurting fine? Does every follower deserve the hurt you’re inflicting on them?

    Or, do you want to people not follow that text? Well, hate never turned anyone toward one’s cause.
