"Another turtle," came the reply. "And what holds that up?" pressed James. The skeptic was undeterred: "You can't fool me, sir. It’s turtles all the way down." — Anecdote attributed to William James ([via J.R. Ross, 1967](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turtles_all_the_way_down)) This is the 2nd post in a series of 4

Abstract We present a surprising result regarding LLMs and alignment. In our experiment, a model is finetuned to output insecure code without disclosing this to the user. The resulting model acts misaligned on a broad range of prompts that are unrelated to coding: it asserts that humans should be enslaved by AI, gives malicious advice, and acts deceptively. Training on the narrow task of writing insecure code induces broad misalignment. We call this emergent misalignment. This effect is observe

The presence of tabs caused occasional minor headaches and grumbles among the Python developers, who now numbered in the dozens and we
