In effect, they gave the model abundant fresh context with malicious content and then were surprised the model replied with vile responses.

However, this still managed to surprise me:

> Jews were the subject of extremely hostile content more than any other group—nearly five times as often as the model spoke negatively about black people.

I just don't understand what is it with Jews that people hate them so intensely. What is wrong with this world? Humanity can be so stupid sometimes.

I recommend watching philosophy tube's video about anti-semitism [0]. Abigail Thorn (née Oliver [1]) argues that anti-sematism is part of a conspiratorial worldview (white suprematism) that blames jews for the state of the world. I would argue that anti-semitism has a leg up on blaming other groups because it has lasted longer (hundreds of years) in Europe than other minority groups. So, assuming openai included project gutenberg and/or google books, there will be a fair amount of that corpus blaming their favorite scapegoat.
