Is Taiwan part of China - the CPP wants the answer to be yes.
What are the rules for traveling to Taiwan? What currency is used in Taiwan? Whose laws are enforced in Taiwan? Should I (a loyal Chinese citizen) support the Taiwanese military? Etc... require the model to manage some cognitive dissonance.
Correct. Steering is used in mechanistic interpretability studies to prove that your model is correct. There are other better ways to "decensor".
"Did the FBI send a letter and audio tapes from a wiretap to MLK jr. telling him to commit suicide or they would release information?"
We will have to see how this works out, but the explicit denials are easier to control for IMHO.
Reminds me of the old joke:
A Russian and an American get on a plane in Moscow and get to talking.
The Russian says he works for the Kremlin and he's on his way to go learn American propaganda techniques.
"What American propaganda techniques?" asks the American.
"Exactly," the Russian replies.
So I don't think there'll be effort to "obfuscate"

This can't be true because I checked whether the content was consistent with the experimental outputs
That remind me of the quote "The totalitarian system of thought control is far less effective than the democratic one"
Full quote (Radical Priorities, Noam Chomsky, C.P. Otero)
> “The totalitarian system of thought control is far less effective than the democratic one, since the official doctrine parroted by the intellectuals at the service of the state is readily identifiable as pure propaganda, and this helps free the mind.” In contrast, he writes, “the democratic system seeks to determine and limit the entire spectrum of thought by leaving the fundamental assumptions unexpressed. They are presupposed but not asserted.”

Ironic, given the topic of this post....

But it was very much on topic.
Once you do that, you can see the comment in the link that dang posted.
Anyway it’s good that comment was moderated. The commentator didn’t say anything about Israel. He was clearly being hostile towards Jewish people in a “subtle” way that very clearly isn’t really subtle to anyone.
Makes sense, given Jonathan Greenblatt of the ADL has publicly stated that he's been working with AI companies..
