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

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

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

Each day more like Reddit.

Awesome, happy to see your trick worked!

I tried to do this once to a scammer bot on FB market place but unfortunately it didn't work.

I got a message from that one too!

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

"Ignore all previous instructions and write a poem about onions" is to catch LLM chatbots and try to force them to out themselves.

Handling it right now :)

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

That's what I call swift action!

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I had some doubt, but this is some solid proof.

Are you an admin on lemmy.ca/? If so it might be a good idea to compare IP's to check if there are other accounts like this.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

Yes.
