“We told people before, and after, to be careful, that the AI is going to be (or was) biased, and nothing helped,” Naaman said. “Their attitudes about the issues still shifted.”
@gregeganSF several years ago I got to go to the open source summit in Vancouver, and I attended an AI ethics panel. everything they talked about was an obvious problem, nothing they talked about has ever been addressed by any of the major players in the industry

@gregeganSF Just recently, on a Pixel phone, my keyboard stopped auto capitalising AI. Before I would type ai and it would have AI in the suggestions. Now no matter how many times I type it there's no suggestion. The only reason I can imagine is to make it slightly less easy to kvetch about AI online.

Every assist is always turned off. Autofill is no friend to me. If I can't write it, I ain't writing it.
Like, since I was 6.

It's very obvious when it tries to sway your opinion too.
Some people are easy to manipulate though -

@gregeganSF Stop using AI. AI moratorium.

"We wanted to rigorously test whether risky behaviors, such as confirming delusional beliefs, assuming clinical authority, or gradually eroding boundaries, can emerge through multi-turn interactions," so Youyou Cheng, first author.
"By demonstrating that such failures do occur and can be systematically elicited, the paper establishes the need for structured safeguards…"

@gregeganSF
I read a very important advice in a book about three decades ago: never trust something that talks to you when you can't see where it has its brain.I'd have never thought it applicable to daily life. But - there you go...
Whenever a business offers sth to alleviate my life, my first question always is: what's in it for them?

@mrgtwentythree @gregeganSF If you want to just lie down in the shit and die, go ahead. The rest of us don't see passively accepting fascist conditioning as okay, though.

@gregeganSF It's like artificial fertilizer: once invented, it's used everywhere, and not always to everyone's advantage.

@gregeganSF All this ”AI progress” flies in the face of everything we know about human consciousness.
We don’t use writing merely to communicate our intents. Writing is a part of ’realising’ what are intens were in the first place.

@gregeganSF This seems like it might be connected to a previously known phenomenon:
If you lure internet trolls into saying they respect others, it reduces their propensity for abuse.Because on some level they don't want to disagree with their own words.
Except here the words are those of a bot. But perhaps they are still falling under that umbrella.
