  1. There are too many people who think you're psychotic for thinking "AI" is not intelligent.

    People in positions of power.

    Humanity is fucked.

  3. 👆 "A University of Oxford pre-print study of more than 100 chatbot models released in the previous two years found that across the board they had become more “relationship-seeking”. As a chatbot expresses more personality, humour and claims of lived experience, people appear to feel more compelled to talk to it – and believe it is conscious, the researchers found."

  8. 👆 "A grave trend is emerging in chatbot design, … AI developers are deliberately engineering machines in ways “that create the illusion of inner life”.

    Many have noted this evolution in their AI systems over the past two years. Asked for advice on planting geraniums, a chatbot might refer to “what worked in my garden”. In response to a user baring their soul over a bad breakup, they might reassure “I know exactly what you mean”. In voice mode, models breathe."

  28. @lindamciver
    I really liked this interview Linda. Thank you for sharing it..

    I am also very glad that you ended up talking about how useful AI can be (given currated datasets and specificity in outputs) because I was getting anxious that this usage of AI technology wouldn’t get to air.

    I find it distressing that all news outlets and all but a few commentaters use AI as an umbrella term to cover a multitude of models, computations and purposes while focussing entirely on the #LLM #GenAI tools that are nothing more than #TextRegurgitatingMachines built, as you say, for power and profits only. So, yes, happy you made the distinction, sad that this wasn’t stated up front just to anchor the following conversation which was about #ChatBots and #AIPsychosis.
