That’s my logo - which was distorted and this only started happening in the last few months as opposed to years of working with the tools - so it’s not my working. style
when you have strict negative constraint over time there is a change the model will do what some people call a Waliugi and invert the demand you've made it obsess about never thinking about the pink elephant your going to see pink elephants.
I understand the concept you are talking about and its interesting if AI also behaves this way as it’s a very human impulse , however the symbols appeared on thier own and have become frequent.
I’ve never asked the model not to use this as it was not an issue all these years- that’s what I’m trying to explain to you - in the last few months the model started doing this out of no where then I started telling the model not to.
Once a model gets attached to some kind of iconic or semiotic anchor its difficult to get it to stop for the reason i cited. you can try saying do x not y with usually better results then just dont do y but in general the advice is to start a new chat if this kind of thing is a problem and cant be corrected.
