Really the only reliable way to prevent an AI from giving out a particular type of info is to avoid training it on that info. Eg if you donâ(TM)t want your AI giving out bomb-making instructions, donâ(TM)t train it on bomb-making instructions.

Of course, removing harmful info from the training sets at scale is its own tough problem; maybe they could train an AI to do that.

Yeah, doesnâ(TM)t everyone? The problem is itâ(TM)s very easy to be a bad C++ developer, and thereâ(TM)s a long twisty road to travel before you can be a good one.

Rust is similar, except the bad Rust programmers will spend more of their time battling the compiler and less of their usersâ(TM) time discovering runtime bugs caused by avoidable programming errors.
