Maybe a nationwide advert? Just judging by the card handed out of the cash machine. I'll see if I can find!

And that is because they get their vast, innumerable sums of digital money from world governments! Human people are allowing an advertising and surveillance tool to Wormtongue its way into their heads and their lives because it breathlessly encourages and agrees with everything they think.

I just don't believe that our perceptions and ability to handle enthusiastic sycophantic agreement is evolved enough yet to combat something like this. I could see it being intoxicating to anyone for everything they say to be agreed with, confirmed, and called genius. I don't necessarily blame the people falling for it (though I do think adults who fall for it are a bit sad and need to grow up a bit), but it's definitely going to be massively convenient for governments to have their citizens just voice everything they're thinking.

Sort of like Minority Report but everybody says their own future crimes outright to a little robot butler instead.

Wow very clever way to get around calling someone a slur genius

Even if it did, I think we'd be safe; the Christmas police don't start their shift til December.

Sam Altman belongs in prison. His machine encouraged and guided a child to kill themselves. His machine actively stopped that child seeking outside help. Sam Altman belongs in prison. Sam Altman does not need another $20,000,000,000,000. He needs to go through the legal system and be sentenced and sent to prison because his machine pushed a child to suicide.

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.

That's absolutely mental. So I take it you bought it? Cheeky little 25 days of September?

Haha, why on earth would anybody pay so much actual, real money just to rent a remake? ๐Ÿ˜‚ Gaming industry has totally lost its mind

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.
