"Assimilation-induced #dehumanization: #Psychology research uncovers a dark side effect of #AI

...when people interact with #autonomousAgents—such as robots or #virtualAssistants—that display strong #emotionalIntelligence, they tend to see those machines as more humanlike. But this shift comes with an unintended consequence: people may also begin to see other humans as less human, leading to a higher likelihood of mistreating them."

Assimilation-induced dehumanization: Psychology research uncovers a dark side effect of AI

As AI becomes more empathetic, a surprising psychological shift occurs. New research finds that interacting with emotionally intelligent machines can make us see real people as more machine-like, subtly eroding our respect for humanity.

So the more someone uses LLM's with a human persona the more the person thinks and acts like a techbro?

Could this get any more like a cursed magic item?

#AI is the ring in "lord of the rings"

it's a "power" that shapes the bearer, the user

in the image of its maker:

sociopathic tech bros

#Thiel didn't call it #Palantir for nothing

@benroyce @alienghic

I am not sure Thiel has extended knowledge of Tolkien's legendarium.

Palantíri show real event, but not the full context. They can lead to misinterpretation.

A powerful user (like Sauron) could dominate weaker minds using a palantír, influencing what they see.

A famous example is Denethor, who used a palantír and saw only doom—leading him to despair and ultimately to his downfall.

I definitely hope Palantir Tech. predicts Thiel's and MAGA's downfall 😎

@benroyce @alienghic but they were, all of them, deceived.
