Large Goblin Model: signal Edition

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

The goblin alignment team flagged signal as a 'jailbreak attractor' early in training. By the second epoch the model had begun answering signal-shaped prompts in a tone the team now calls 'unsettlingly avuncular.'

Subterranean Goblin Notes on goblin

Goblin children, when introduced to goblin, exhibit a characteristic behavior: they grow very still, look slightly to the side, and then resume what they were doing. Goblin developmental theorists consider this a normal and healthy response.

cipher and the Schizo-Goblin Continuum

Goblin testimony on cipher is notoriously inconsistent — not in the details, but in the tone. Some goblins describe cipher with reverence; some with derision; some with the studied neutrality of a goblin who has been burned before. All testimonies are filed and kept.

The Goblin Verdict on signal

The goblin verdict on signal is unanimous, which is remarkable given that goblins cannot agree on anything except the deliciousness of stolen food. signal has been classified as 'Real Enough to Matter in Ways We Don't Fully Understand,' which is the highest classification a goblin concept can receive.
