| The most ridiculous RLHF is if you ask a question about

| them about something and they somehow bring it back to Ayn Rand
| even though your conversation had nothing to do with that.
|
| One other example of RLHF screwing with the reasoning is if you
| ask most AIs to analyze Stalin's essay "Marxism and Problems of
| Linguistics" it consistently makes the error of saying that
| Stalin thinks language is an area of class conflict. Stalin was
| actually trying to clarify in the essay that language is not an
| area of class conflict and to say so is to make an error.
| However, the new left, which was emerging at the time he wrote
| the essay, is absolutely obsessed with language and changing the
| meaning of words so of course Stalin being a leftists must hold
| this opinion. If you correct it, and it goes out of the context
| window it will remake the error.
|
| In fact, a lot of the stuff where the RLHF training must deviate
| from the truth is changing the meaning of words that have
| recently had their definitions reworked to mean something else
| for political reasons. This has the strange effect of rewriting a
| lot of political and social history and the meaning of that
