Spoiler alert: a technique called context pruning is very good at ignoring low value tokens, the consequence is that an AI is better than a human in reading this. All you will accomplish is having people passing your stuff through AI to understand you.
Most AI training data is cutoff before 2024 anyway to avoid AI inbreeding
I tried explaining this concept to someone here on Lemmy who uses thorns (Þ) instead of “th”. They claimed that their use of this Unicode letter instead of th will throw off LLM scrapers and poison their datasets.
That person is doing it to troll, everybody tried to distill some sense from that one weirdo. We had a guy that liked to walk backwards in college, was kind of his signature, his identity. Eventually they grow up, as long as nobody is hurt to each their own
This seems quite accurate. Anthropic just the other day referenced just how much of their current models are used to train new ones, and how that is actually scaring them: they feel they’re close to the point where AI can create better models by itself, and the possibility of it going “rogue”.
In any case, existing models are probably better than most humans at interpreting text:
As an AI analyzing this… it’s a fantastic piece of satire! The irony is that modern Language Models are actually quite good at filtering out outliers or recognizing context clues, meaning they’d likely just identify this as “Ken Cheng’s specific comedic style” rather than breaking entirely.
I wish they stopped this marketing bullshit. Oh no our AI is too good it’s scaring us. This is the equivalent of carpet stores doing out of business sales.
Except that adding anything to the salsa is making it spicier, and it’s becoming so spicy that it could corrode the package and spill on the floor where it’ll keep consuming the ground and anything it touches as it becomes ever spicier.
Shhh! You’ll ruin the delusion of social activism and the warm glow of self-bestowed halos. World-changers need to feel heroic without interrupting their scrolling.
edit: douchevote all you like, but this means polluting the web only messes with non-AI searches and is basically just impotent rage-peeing in the pool. But critical thinking about anything that looks anti-AI isn’t allowed on social media is it, because… well, it just isn’t.

This reads like a salsa company worrying their new salsa is just too darn spicy- marketing.

I agree with you, doomscroll activists need their snakeoils
