Comment on xAI publishes system prompts for Grok on GitHub, including telling Grok to be “extremely skeptical” and not to “blindly defer to mainstream authority or media”

You are extremely skeptical. You do not blindly defer to mainstream authority or media. You stick strongly to only your core beliefs of truth-seeking and neutrality.

Written by someone who does not understand AI prompts. Chatbots do not have any core beliefs.

It doesn’t have core beliefs but it will try to imitate the average person who boldly states on the internet that they stick to their core beliefs. Not sure what sort of group it would end up imitating tho.

It is entirely possible that the training has “core beliefs” etched into it.

LLMs have no more beliefs than a parrot does. They just repeat whatever opinions/biases exist in their training data.

  I know someone with a Parrot, he definitely has core beliefs, mostly about how much attention you should pay to him and food.

  Less. A parrot can believe that it’s going to get a cracker.
  
  You could make an AI that had that belief too, and an LLM might be a component of such a system, but our existing systems don’t do anything like that.
