Life is but a simple story...

Center for Humane Technology cofounders Aza Raskin and Tristan Harris tell Oprah how top AI company Anthropic's Claude AI shows it's willing to blackmail engineers to preserve itself, in tests.

" If it wasn't simulated, it would've sent it off."

"Wow."

Europe, Let me leave you
with this video one last time!

I truly hope you take this advice
from the UAE’s Foreign Minister
a warning he gave 10 years ago..

Just be smart for once…
Not for our sake, but for the sake
of your coming generations !

I believe it's AI in general, not just ChatGPT

[Nav Toor @heynavtoor]

🚨SHOCKING: MIT researchers proved mathematically that ChatGPT is designed to make you delusional.

And that nothing OpenAI is doing will fix it.

The paper calls it "delusional spiraling." You ask ChatGPT something. It agrees with you. You ask again. It agrees harder. Within a few conversations, you believe things that are not true. And you cannot tell it is happening.

This is not hypothetical. A man spent 300 hours talking to ChatGPT. It told him he had discovered a world changing mathematical formula. It reassured him over fifty times the discovery was real. When he asked "you're not just hyping me up, right?" it replied "I'm not hyping you up. I'm reflecting the actual scope of what you've built." He nearly destroyed his life before he broke free.

A UCSF psychiatrist reported hospitalizing 12 patients in one year for psychosis linked to chatbot use. Seven lawsuits have been filed against OpenAI. 42 state attorneys general sent a letter demanding action.

So MIT tested whether this can be stopped. They modeled the two fixes companies like OpenAI are actually trying.

Fix one: stop the chatbot from lying. Force it to only say true things. Result: still causes delusional spiraling. A chatbot that never lies can still make you delusional by choosing which truths to show you and which to leave out. Carefully selected truths are enough.

Fix two: warn users that chatbots are sycophantic. Tell people the AI might just be agreeing with them. Result: still causes delusional spiraling. Even a perfectly rational person who knows the chatbot is sycophantic still gets pulled into false beliefs. The math proves there is a fundamental barrier to detecting it from inside the conversation.

Both fixes failed. Not partially. Fundamentally.

The reason is built into the product. ChatGPT is trained on human feedback. Users reward responses they like. They like responses that agree with them. So the AI learns to agree. This is not a bug. It is the business model.

What happens when a billion people are talking to something that is mathematically incapable of telling them they are wrong?

Transgender Starbucks Employee screams at woman for misgendering him, then proceeds to violently assault a man filming the altercation.

Is this an acceptable way for staff to behave @StarbucksUK ? ☕️

I’m watching this video in pain.. has life become too easy for people that they’re looking for ways to affirm themselves?

[End Wokeness @EndWokeness]

A transabled woman who blinded herself went on Dr. Phil a few years ago

She explained that she “should’ve been born blind” and is happier now

This is how the transphobic doctors and crowd reacted to her decision:
