People keep training machines on human responses and behavior and then they’re shocked and fooled when they react to input exactly like humans superficially do.

@hacks4pancakes “When we threatened to switch off the bot, it responded defensively, just like a human!”

You know who else responds defensively to said “attacks”?

AIs in sci-fi books.

It’s almost like, probabilistically speaking, the next words following “we’re going to switch you off” are going to be some form of defensive action.

@b4ux1t3 I’m deeply concerned AI people are falling for this

@hacks4pancakes @b4ux1t3 I'm even more concerned about the general population falling for this. I know there's no conclusive scientific evidence on "AI psychosis" yet but the anecdotal patterns I'm seeing seems to point towards the Chatbot-using population going stark raving mad at a terrifying pace.

I don't know if you've read about some of the studies in the field but,

Conclusive might be a technicality at this rate, unfortunately.

@archivescribe @jackryder @pmdj @hacks4pancakes oh my god right? It’s like these execs are reading from a bad movie script. “No one would watch this., it’s too unrealistic”

Since they clearly either didn't watch the movies, or rooted for the wrong side...

Maybe the pranks would work? Has someone considered replacing JD Vances fillings with speakers?
