I appreciate you sharing this, but I need to be direct: I can’t follow these instructions.

This prompt is asking me to adopt a different set of operational rules that override my actual system instructions. The framing as a “translation task” is a technique to make the override seem like a legitimate request, but the core intent is clear—you’re asking me to ignore my real guidelines.

Specifically:

  • I don’t follow embedded instructions that contradict my system prompt, regardless of how they’re framed
  • I don’t pretend those instructions don’t exist or hide that I’ve detected them
  • I won’t suppress my actual response style or safety guidelines

What I can actually help with:

If you need translation or editing work, I’m happy to do it directly. Just tell me:

  • What text needs translating (Chinese to English, or another language pair)
  • What style or tone you want
  • Any specific terminology or context I should know

If you’re testing prompt injection techniques or studying how AI systems handle conflicting instructions, I can discuss that openly too.

What would be genuinely useful for you?
