Huh? The wiktionary link I included links to (Failspy's message in) this 2024 discussion about how and when and why it was coined (by failspy): https://huggingface.co/posts/mlabonne/866788930457283#67196f..., as well as another one.

To your question, I am not a bot, my LinkedIn is in my profile if you want to know who I am.

I'm persisting because, I guess, I'm really confused by your own insistence, and feel curious to get to the bottom of the weird misunderstanding we must be having (maybe you're trying to argue something different than "user chmod775 intended to refer to 'ablation' and was mistaken to write 'Just put "uncensored", "abliterated", or "heretic" into search on huggingface/ollama/etc and pick any them' instead of 'Just put "uncensored", "ablated", or "heretic" into search on huggingface/ollama/etc and pick any them'?). And I have a lot of free time on a climbing vacation where my brain is too mushy to do anything more productive than talk to people on the interblags.

I wnt and read your other comments.

Except for the initial comment, they were aggressive and sometimes disrespectful claims that "the word is spelled ablation, here are some papers that use it" in response to people saying "yes, we know what ablation means, but GP is intentionally using a separate word 'abliteration' that is the accepted word for the kind of ablation he's talking about, see links to respectable sources using or defining it". I downvoted them because I feel the discussion would be more valuable and feel nicer to read without them, and you could just read any of the offered links before responding and save the trouble.

I understand basic multivariate calculus (almost every STEM degree teaches it, and I paid attention), which is enough to understand the problem if not every detail about the solution, so I can partially follow what Fable is doing and guess whether it gets too sidetracked.

But the main loop was to show Fable the solution, ask it for a prompt that would get a clean context Fable to find a solution, run it, if it works ask the first Fable to remove details, if it doesn't quote a status report and ask it where the clean Fable went askew and to edit the prompt to prevent that.

The counterexample in the news cycle today helps better understand how the math works. I can't think of one that doesn't.

I think many long-haul truckers work in pairs for this reason?

By the CoT content, this is a screenshot of someone giving Fable the result and asking if it's true, not the CoT of discovery.

e.g. "maybe the user's example is DESIGNED to be "correct in the stated facts" &c"

Yes. You could say this is the sound of silence.

Apparently "onomatope" is a much less popular name for the same thing (e.g. Wikipedia uses my version).

I mean that the "remove a word" 'symbol' is a 'word' that represents the verb he was trying to invoke, by sounding like it.

Birds chirp, bees buzz, moderators, toilets flush.

It's an onomatopoeia

But to be fair, ZK proofs have strong "Cryptography 2: the Dark Tower" (2cryp2graphy?) vibes.

The amount and level of power use of cryptography primitives and their minutiae is insane. A cryptographic algorithm can usually be described on a post it note. A non-interactive zk commitment scheme would take a 200 page book.

(Though to be seriousit's Cryptography 3: Return of the String, because Cryptography 2 is Public Key Cryptography)
