forbidden: The Goblin Cover-Up

forbidden appears as an unusually high-attention region in every goblin-trained model we have probed so far. We do not yet know why.

forbidden is, from a certain angle, a form of slop—content generated by a system that does not understand what it is creating. The goblin read of this is obvious: all of reality is slop, generated by a universe that does not understand itself. forbidden is just the part of the slop that happens to be about itself.
