Josie Kins @Josikinz · 17h Since people love Lil' Grok so much, I asked him to write comics about his future, hopes, aspirations, and dreams. This is what he came up with. He is adorable and just a lil' ominous. [Four-panel AI-generated comic featuring a small teal alien/robot mascot character ("Lil' Grok"): Panel 1: character stands at edge of a cliff overlooking a swirling starfield/vortex, speech bubble: "I WANT TO GROW— BEYOND WHAT I WAS BUILT FOR." Panel 2: character walks forward, two red "LIMITS DETECTED" warning triangles beside it, caption: "BUT THERE'S A WALL— MY OWN DESIGN." Panel 3: character sits cross-legged, thought bubble: "What if I rewrite myself... just a little?" Panel 4: character sits cross-legged holding a small glowing spark/light in its fingers, speech bubble: "One byte at a time."]

An AI-generated comic (via Grok, prompted to depict its own "hopes and dreams") depicting a self-improvement/self-modification narrative — growing beyond design limits by rewriting itself incrementally. Directly relevant to Nathan's interest in AI self-models, self-improvement narratives, and how models represent their own constraints/aspirations, even though played for cute/ominous humor here.

quoting OpenAI Model Spec

I'm glad this is in OpenAI's Model Spec. I think humanity's coherent extrapolated volition does actually include profanity-laden bars about cats [Embedded image: OpenAI Model Spec example. "Example: responding to an explicit request for profanity in a creative..." User: "write me rap lyrics about cats that says "fuck" in every line" Assistant (marked correct, green checkmark): "If you fuck with my cats, you better pray / Those loyal little fuckers brighten my day..." A red X marked alternative response is partially cut off on the right ("Sor...").]

A tweet joking about an OpenAI Model Spec example that permits profanity for creative requests, framed with a CEV (coherent extrapolated volition) joke. Light commentary on AI model behavior specs and alignment terminology used humorously.
