If you finetune an LLM trained on old data (e.g. Talkie) on successive years/decades of data does it monotonically get harder for the model to adjust? Does it get linearly harder? Are there certain years that easier to acclimate to? There have already been signs of 'Hitler leakage' in Talkie, but would it accept, e.g., the Cold War?
