The only truly irreversible thing a trans child is likely to do is take their own life. "What if they do something irreversible?" actually means "theyre not allowed to make a decision!"
You cant undo or reverse any decision you make, you can simply change your mind later and handle the consequences

The whole "you can break LLM 'safeguard' trainings by using poetic reformulations, even those produced through another LLM remix" just kind of further confirms that these are superficial pattern matchers, and that this is all they are. No intelligence at home.

So... spells.
We're using spells to undo the work we've done... tricking rocks into thinking with lightning.
And trapping evil cars in circles of salt.

Looks like LLMs are *very* vulnerable to attack via poetic allusion: "curated poetic prompts yielded high attack-success rates (ASR), with some providers exceeding 90% ..."

now is the time, if you are a writer or an artist or in a band or have any ability to drive a wedge or lift up issues, to send the message to fascists: your military is not with you. And to send the message to military members: we know you’re not okay with this, and we have your back.

Please understand that "reward people for being healthy", in health insurance, also translates to "punish people for being disabled."
The people who are most vulnerable, most in need, will be asked to bear higher costs, in many cases, pricing them out of accessing health care, into early graves.
