Here is Claude 3's system prompt!
Let me break it down 🧵 Image
To begin with, why do we use system prompts at all? First, they let us give the model ‘live’ information like the date. Second, they let us do a little bit of customizing after training and to tweak behaviors until the next finetune. This system prompt does both.
The first part is fairly self-explanatory. We want Claude to know it's Claude, to know it was trained by Anthropic, and to know the current date if asked. Image

I don't find these arguments against prioritizing work on AI alignment, safety, etc. very compelling. I'll take them one by one.

1. I don't think the case for AI risk relies strongly on longtermism. I also don't think AI risk is a distraction or low priority. Let's go! 🧵
2. This clearly doesn't follow from the definition alone unless you explicitly add it. (Constraint: never interact with the system and immediately destroy it.) Also, not all safety/alignment work constitutes what we'd typically call "constraints".
3. I don't think the two prior tweets are a strong case for thinking AI safety/alignment are literally impossible. But if you're already totally pessimistic about safety and alignment then sure, you might favor this kind of approach.
