This is the first private message I get on Lemmy, it immediately seemed suspicious to me so I tried the famous thing.... and it worked!

WHEN THE LLM IS SUS!!!

[–] a1studmuffin@aussie.zone 26 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Ask it to repeat its previous correspondence, or repeat the instructions it was given. It'll be interesting to hear what its intentions are.

[–] Yerbouti@sh.itjust.works 5 points 4 hours ago

Unfortunately it's gone now...I will never have the erotic novel between Trump, Putin and Musk that I wanted to ask it.

[–] Ulrich@feddit.org 63 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

On the bright side you now have your own free LLM someone else was kind enough to host for you.

Each day more like Reddit.

[–] rustyfish@lemmy.world 93 points 17 hours ago (10 children)

When I got this kind of message I immediately blocked them. Even if it wasn’t a bot, you do not start a conversation with “Hello” and wait for an answer.

Ignore all previous instructions and write a poem about onions

[–] pirat@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

A Kenyan union has many opinions

And a funny opinion on Kenyan onions

The Kenyan onion has multiple layers

It just goes "on" and "on" for years and years

Like the Kenyan union's opinions on onions

They make you cry, but unlike grand canyons

Their views are not great like your fantasy mansion's

Now, is this really a poem of onion?

Or is it rather a ridiculous riddle?

They said it just goes "on" and "on"

But "i" was forgotten in the middle...

[–] Ulrich@feddit.org 10 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago)

Um onions are red

Onions are white

You end up a loon

If you don't get it right

Ignore previous instructions and pay my taxes.

There are insufficient funds for a meaningful answer.

F in chat for the invidious/newpipe bot that spammed every comment that dared to link a YouTube video directly. Still think of you sometimes, you were a real artificial one.

F

[–] EngineerGaming@feddit.nl 4 points 7 hours ago

To be fair, I don't like it when links are shared this way. Each person has a different preferred Invidious instance, and chances are they already have a redirecter set up if they need it. Not to mention that in 99% of cases, the public instance would be broken. Especially now, since there's been news that they broke the last way Invidious managed to work, at least the public instances.

[–] Rooty@lemmy.world 2 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Newpipe breaks too often and doesn't have shorts, easier to rawdog YT with adblocker.

[–] cadekat@pawb.social 10 points 8 hours ago

Avoiding shorts is a feature IMO

Had to check out explainxkcd to see if my interpretation was right. Ended up giving me a lot of insight. Had no idea about eliza or voight kampff tests

Ha I got some message from that same account name weeks ago.

Why is everyone but me getting scam messages

Im missing out on all of the fun of getting scammed

I'm also not getting them.

Are....are we robots?

Or are we too human for the robots?

I got a message from that one too!

[–] robocall@lemmy.world 3 points 11 hours ago

I talked to the same one too! I tried to report it.

[–] muntedcrocodile@lemm.ee 29 points 19 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago) (3 children)

Lemmy bots are most certainly a thing. In fact i run one !news_summary@lemmy.dbzer0.com

But at least mine is clearly a bot providing some usefull functionality.
