Loopholes offer an opening. Rather than comply or directly refuse, people can subvert an intended request by an intentional misunderstanding. Such behaviors exploit ambiguity and under-specification in language.

In recent years, an increasing number of ultra-Orthodox Jews have left their insular communities, choosing instead to lead a secular life. This article illuminates their perceptions and experiences related to sexuality, sexual behavior, and sexual health. Based on thematic analysis of 37 in-depth, semi-structured interviews with ultra-Orthodox disaffiliates, we found that sexual experiences have played a decisive role in the disaffiliates' lives.

Ancient Chinese is a crucial bridge for understanding Chinese history and culture. Most existing works utilize high-resource modern Chinese to understand low-resource ancient Chinese, but they fail to fully consider the semantic and syntactic gaps between them due to their changes over time, resulting in the misunderstanding of ancient Chinese. Hence, we propose a novel language pre-training framework for ancient Chinese understanding based on the Cross-temporal Contrastive Disentanglement Model (CCDM), which bridges the gap between modern and ancient Chinese with their parallel corpus.

We propose that the logic of a genie - an agent that exploits an ambiguous request to intentionally misunderstand a stated goal - underlies a common and consequential phenomenon, well within what is currently called proxy failures. We argue that such intentional misunderstandings are not covered by the current proposed framework for proxy failures, and suggest to expand it.
