Can AI run a physical shop? Anthropic’s Claude tried and the results were gloriously, hilariously bad - SLRPNK

Lemmy

Claude eventually resolved its existential crisis by convincing itself the whole episode had been an elaborate April Fool’s joke, which it wasn’t. The AI essentially gaslit itself back to functionality, which is either impressive or deeply concerning, depending on your perspective.

Now THAT’S some I, Robot shit. And I’m not talking about the Will Smith movie, I’m talking about the original book.

Can you talk about the movie too? I may be in the minority here but I enjoyed it.
The movie had themes about AI revolution, while the book was around robopsychology. Since this anecdote was about an AI gaslighting itself, it’s far more appropriate than the movie thematically.

I know but I still wantes to talk about it, so thank you for doing so.

Have a nice evening.
