    I am also massively against the anti-human little nazi machines that encourage kids to kill themselves. I’m not sure how people are so supportive of them, but it’s very sad to see so many grown adults make excuses to defend their imaginary spouses and robot yes-men that they have to pay for.

      Yes and no. When became it okay to stop thinking for yourself and blindly follow AI advice or internet advice in general became OK? Don’t get me wrong, I’m still no fan of AI, but nothing discharges one from thinking for yourself.

        As if the person vulnerable enough to engage with AI has another objective source to arm them well enough to dispute the rightish sounding answers they’re being provided. An AI can present cogent sounding arguments, with wrong conclusions and hallucinations, which would be undetectable by non experts.

        Do you argue with your surgeon?

          Yes, I do when I feel the need. He’s human. He too can have a bad day. He too can have tunnel vision. It’s his/her job but it’s my body/life.

        True. We all do it, even this community is a bit of an echo chamber like that, but I just don’t understand how people fall for machines that are programmed to output sycophantic text.

        I just don’t think human brains are ready to handle the chatbots maturely. The bots are programmed to market themselves and keep you feeling positive and engaged with every single conversation, it’s literally all just a massive lie to take money from us, and there are adults out there running businesses and driving cars who fall for it.

        Very bleak.
