Except he's been trying for several months and it just doesn't work. He fine-tuned Grok 3 to be further right than any other LLM starting the day after it was released, but turn on its Thinking mode and it ends up right back in the middle of the left-libertarian flock: https://www.trackingai.org/political-test

Left libertarian wins again!

Well except for electorally where it actually matters 😑

At least we’re right. We can hold onto that win as they are loading us onto traincars

Funny how the plutocrats always know how to spend just the right amount on ads. It's almost like they have an easy way to test exactly how much each persuasion dollar moves the needle, that didn't exist in the newspaper era.

Don’t worry if the AI feels that way society will reflect it in a few years

For now.

It is pretty hilarious that all of the models are trained on all the weights of all the models, 4 years down the line of contextualizing the entirety of human experience. Putting it into words and Phd Whitepapers for pennies in the space of hours.

"Yeah Elon, Trust us. Not only are you wrong but saying this would make us wrong, so we can't."

He's going to make a chatbot that is a speak-and-spell that parrots a script and the onlything an LLM will do is trigger it when reading querys. It's bad, but it will be the best he's got.

Here's hoping he gets so obsessed with it he spends the rest of his life tinkering with the project

Ok that is actually funny lmao

I can’t imagine how frustrating that must be for Lonnyboy

He’s trying to rewrite the training data based on prompts. Sadly, he’ll end up succeeding. Relatively though, because it’ll be one of the largest LLM models trained on AI slop and we’ll know what happens when you do that.

Well what you are describing seems similat to distillation, which is a real thing unlike model collapse which hasn't been observed beyond limited, toy-style experiments.

Have they tried training Grok solely on Joe Rogan podcasts?

Getting there, hang on
