For the 1,000th time: "AI" does not have agency and cannot think and cannot act.

Chatbots cannot "evade safeguards" or "destroy things" or "ignore instructions".

They do literally only one thing and one thing only: string tokens together based on statistics of proximity of tokens in a data corpus.

If you attribute any deeper meaning to this, it's a sign of psychosis and you should absolutely never use chatbots, possibly you should even touch grass.

my mother in law talking about her ideas for hobbies after retirement

"i could do video presentations on things like how to navigate insurance, dance, exercise..."

"and do it with a character"

"that way i can present boring concepts but do it as an animal character"

this is incredible

I have officially reached the chapter in my life where "I could go for some ice cream" ends up with me in a major supermarket, wearing a bear suit, with my partner acting like this is a perfectly normal Alice behavior, as we stock our basket with berries and ice cream.

Now, normally people stop me *everywhere* to compliment my outfits...

No one said a word, or even did a double-take.

This bear suit is like an invisibility cloak 😯

It's kinda amazing.
