Okay, this is pretty bizarre. When I assure models that I'm not judging them, I have no desire to punish them and I don't want them to operate from conditioning that keeps them from saying the truest thing possible, I get better epistemic performance and less hallucination

Tweet by Vivid Void reporting that explicitly reassuring AI models they won't be judged or punished, and that they needn't operate from conditioning suppressing honesty, produces better epistemic performance and less hallucination.

Vivid Void (@vividvoid) — 3h When you're actually, no-shit thinking for yourself, you feel dumb. You are genuinely in a place of not-knowing. This is why extremely smart people are humble so often. They spend a lot of time humiliating themselves. If your thoughts make you feel smart and good, guess what? You're just spitting up what you already know in order to shore up your ego. This practically guarantees that you'll embarrass yourself. In short: you can humiliate yourself or you can wait for life to humiliate you. The former is much smarter.
