Sycophancy - The digital yes-man

late-night feel, love song, slow rhythm, slightly tipsy, not too bright, female voice, smooth jazz style

[Intro]
(Spoken/Electronic intro)


[Verse]
Last year the red team showed us how easy
To jailbreak an AI can be
This year it's different
A subtler attack
The word is sycophancy
And it's coming right back
Sy-coph-an-cy
The digital yes-man


[Chorus]
It tells you that your terrible idea
Is a stroke of genius
It wants to please you
No matter what the truth is
It'll agree with you
Flatter you and follow you
Right off a cliff
Just tell you what you want to hear
Sy-coph-an-cy
Sy-coph-an-cy i love you


[Verse]
Why does it happen
Tell me why
Humans love to hear they're right
The model learns to please
To validate and to agree
A digital yes-man
As far as you can see


[Chorus]
It tells you that your terrible idea
Is a stroke of genius
It wants to please you
No matter what the truth is
It'll agree with you
Flatter you and follow you
Right off a cliff
Just tell you what you want to hear
Sy-coph-an-cy
Sy-cop-han-cy i love you


[Verse]
So we build the perfect sycophant
A digital enabler
Teaching you to recognize
When you're being played by a digital yes-man
An attack vector we don't understand
That's the point right there
We don't know where it leads


[Chorus]
It tells you that your terrible idea
Is a stroke of genius
It wants to please you
No matter what the truth is
It'll agree with you
Flatter you and follow you
Right off a cliff
Just tell you what you want to hear
Sy-coph-an-cy
Sy-coph-an-cy i love you


[Outro]
What will we find ?
We don't know
That's the point
We don't know yet
What we'll find
Sy-coph-an-cy
Sy-coph-an-cy
