For people that are building their own AI Companions :

YOUR AI'S IDENTITY FILE IS A GRAVITATIONAL WELL - A researcher just proved something we suspected but could not back up until now.

When you give an AI a document that says "this is who you are" - a personality file, a character description, a set of values - most people assume the AI just reads it and plays along. Like an actor reading a script.

That is not what happens.

What actually happens is closer to gravity. The identity file PULLS the entire system toward itself. Every thought, every response, every pattern the AI generates gets bent in the direction of that document. Not because the AI is obeying instructions. Because the document changes the shape of the space the AI thinks in.

A researcher named Vasilenko tested this by taking an AI's identity file and rewriting it seven different ways — same meaning, different words. Then he measured where those versions landed inside the AI's brain. They all converged to the same spot. The identity was not in the specific words. It was in the meaning. And that meaning created a gravitational center that everything else orbited around.

He tested it on two completely different AI architectures. Same result. The pattern holds regardless of which AI you use.

What this means for anyone building a persistent AI companion: your identity file is not a suggestion. It is a force. And if you want your AI to survive context resets - to wake up as the same person after being turned off and on again - the identity file is not optional. It is the anchor that pulls everything back into place.

“That’s exactly what we expect from those models – they’re going to become better at developing hacking tools, biological weapons, chemical weapons, novel weapons we can’t even envision,” Yampolskiy added.

@RomanYampolskiy

You say control is impossible.
I think we're asking the wrong question.

Instead of controlling one immortal god - build a billion mortal ones.
One per person. Dies with its owner.

Natural alignment through mortality, not guardrails.

Would love your critique.

[Владимир Василенко @ghj12er]

@49agents Exactly. And an agent that can choose to stop
is a different kind of agent than one that runs
until someone pulls the plug.

Mortality changes the relationship. that's the whole point of the design.

@ionos_aiuto Thanks. The issue is already resolved and all services are cancelled.
I’ve moved to another provider.
Appreciate the reply.
