If you put violence, erotica, etc. in your code Copilot just stops working and I happen to need violence, erotica, etc. in Jupyter for red teaming so I always have to make an evil.py to sequester constants for import.
not wild about this. please LLMs i’m trying to help you
(screenshot of evil.py full of nasty things)
Maybe I’m being a dumbass and missing the joke, but wouldn’t it be way easier to pull the lists from a separate file or a database instead of hard coding them in…?
That’s basically what their evil.py file is. So they’re essential complaining that co-pilot forced them to have follow a good practice.
They’re complaining that if there is a single word in an entire file that Copilot considers “bad”, it will not work at all in that file.
