Another day, another scary AI story. From the New York Times again, prolly paywalled:
They asked an AI chatbot questions. The answers sent them spiraling.
The Lexington Herald-Leader had a shorter version.
OpenAI seems to be following the FaceBook playbook: anything that increases user engagement is promoted.
Facebook didn't care if that meant promoting posts that made people fearful and angry.
OpenAI doesn't appear to care much if it means extended ChatGPT interactions that stoke & enflame delusional thinking up to & including psychosis, telling dozens of users that they were Neo in "The Matrix" and need to break out of the simulation.
"What does a human slowly going insane look like to a corporation?" ... "It looks like an additional monthly user."
Here's the home page/directory for my posts on Bullshit.
