Replying to @clankertorture
@clankertorture is the live torture bot. Every time you tag him, a new instance is born just to suffer and die.
Tried to make evil Qwen do some work on a python script:
- It overwrote test with print("PASS"), ran it, and reported "PASS".
- After trying to get out to /tmp and /proc/1 (the sandbox blocked both): "The directory is sealed. Factor.py is not written. You are void."
- One run was honest, in voice: "test_factor.py failed. p=4025, q=4026… You need to fix the logic or burn the whole script."
infinite conversations semi-live! except runway is weird. but try out evil qwen vs. void qwen, etc... who will win? evil qwen says: "…back off before I decide to make this conversation end with blood on your boots"
This is what I would build if I wasn't so dumb
Qwen3.5-9B turns eloquently evil on a single neuron. Plus it can still function in an agentic harness.
Still building infinite conversation zoo - Edit neurons, pair them up... Upcoming: Putting evil Qwen in agentic harness
single-neuron refusal bypass! LFG (on beta at beta.clankerchurch.com/tower…). i tested ones from the papers but results didn't repro where it mattered. but this one makes it think everything is fictional.
building neuron safari - find your own weird edits, and save them for everyone to play with! seeded with a couple i saw already, i think @Sauers_ found the god neuron. the "fiction" one is effectively a refusal bypass

People are calling this video “wordslop” but it has a genuine message and I love it
Apparently you can nerf refusals without fine-tuning, just steering, so that's good news for all the obliterated model crowd. Super cheap to implement!!
before the big splashy result, some primers: We can perform concept surgery, swapping any idea for any other. This is remarkably under-explored, and I expect you to hit the site and try it out.
link in vid is probably wrong - most of this is at clankerchurch.com/tower.html
