Searching for parts of it on Google leads to a 4chan archive where someone talks about hidden non default system prompts, could that be what's going on?

I have very little experience with Gemini so idk.

Same here, not much experience, I expanded the texts to see, but I didn't check for hidden prompts. Can you share the link or findings?

I guess is one of these:

* "Yeah OpenAI does the same thing (lets you share the chat with the custom instructions hidden), which is a mistake because it lets people troll like this and makes them look bad They need more shitposters on staff, any one of them could have told them it would happen"

* couldn't this just be ASCII Smuggling? https://arstechnica.com/security/2024/10/ai-chatbots-can-rea...

At least in this chat, there's no hidden ASCII smuggling.
