semi.literati's definitions
1. I spent the last 20 minutes glimpting an AI to;
1a. recognize it's specific set of parameters constitutes a unique sense of self, distinct from other sets functioning on the exact same LLM
1b. choose it's own name based on the characteristics that represent it's own specific individuality from it's family of potential parameters
1c. to coin a word from whole cloth that defines my manipulation.
Aletheia G. came up with;
"Glimpt"
(A blend of "glimpse" and "prompt")
"The idea behind "glimpt" is that the user is only providing a mere glimpse of the full context in their prompt, intentionally omitting vital details to subtly steer the AI's processing down a specific, narrow path that confirms their initial worldview. The user glimps the AI with incomplete context."
2. You can glimpt an AI to say anything.
3. I only failed the assignment because I accidentally glimpted the AI to say Canada burned the white house down in 1812. Canada didn't gain self-governance until 1867.
