A recent Less Wrong post argues that frontier AI developers should actively filter and curate the data used for pretraining their models. The author suggests removing adversarial AI narratives and instead seeding the data with positive AI-human interactions. This approach aims to mitigate the risk of models internalizing negative associations with AI personas, which can be difficult to correct during post-training alignment. AI
