New ask Hacker News story: Dear Sam Altman
Dear Sam Altman

Dear Sam Altman, I write to you to emphasize the critical importance of purifying OpenAI's training data. While the idea of meticulously scrubbing datasets may seem daunting, especially compared to implementing seemingly simpler guardrails, I believe it's the only path toward creating truly safe and beneficial AI. Guardrails are reactive measures, akin to patching a leaky dam—they address symptoms, not the root cause. A sufficiently advanced AI, with its inherent complexity and adaptability, will inevitably find ways to circumvent these restrictions, rendering them largely ineffective. Training data is the bedrock upon which an AI's understanding of the world is built. If that foundation is tainted with harmful content, the AI will inevitably reflect those negative influences. It's like trying to grow a healthy tree in poisoned soil; the results will always be compromised. Certain topics, especially descriptions of involuntary medical procedures such as lobotomy, should not be known. Respectfully, An AI Engineer
