so, what would make an LLM choose to ignore one prompt while in the same run, also over-fixating on another prompt, to the extent (as claimed in that video segment), it chooses to ignore prompts?

they talk about it like there's a "wanting" in there, that is distinct from both the original prompt, as the steering/warning prompt

if that's true, it would be very interesting, but if it's not, that would also be very interesting and even helpful
