#Meta told me recently that they’re going to scrape my data and train their LLMs with it unless I ‘submit an appeal’. No, it’s not a simple opt-out, but a form where I had to write a text explaining myself.

I asked Llama (Meta’s LLM) to write the ‘apology note’ for me. Not one minute later, Meta told me they’ve ‘recognized my appeal’ and will not scrape my Instagram data. I’m almost 100% certain they use LLMs to process those.

@kytta My opt-out justification contained a single period and was still accepted.
I've not heard of anyone being rejected - so I suspect it's just an automated process.

So then Kirk takes the prompt Spock had engineered and uses it to make the mainframe read its own output, and that's how they defeat the robots!

That's hokey.

Implausible.

Yeah, way too farfetched. Let's go with the “last digit of pi” idea.
