Comments like these are how I know people don’t understand how LLMs work. Even if you concretely tell an LLM “don’t do X under any circumstances” that does not mean it won’t do X. As the context window is filled and recycled, weights are diluted so it becomes more and more likely as time goes on that “rules” are broken. Hell, it’s mathematically possible it breaks the rule on the first prompt, given enough iterations.
