In the moment, it looked like a grand success. The OpenAI team’s demonstration of a warmer, more emotional chatbot last week was one of the most impressive tech demos I’ve seen. In the end, I found its aggressive flirting unsettling, and seemingly at odds with Altman’s previous statements to me that the company would not pursue AI tools that doubled as romantic companions. But the demo unquestionably succeeded in captivating the tech world — and stealing thunder from Google on the eve of its annual developer conference.
It honestly disturbed me. People already trust AI despite all the hallucinations. This just makes it seem more trustworthy because of simulated emotional reactions.
Gotta wonder what kind of deranged musk-esque shit altman wants to pull that made the board try to dump his crazy ass and got dumped instead. We should all be worried to a certain extent
I'm going to run for political office on the lone topic that all AI must be voiced by Conner O'malley's deranged screams because it's the only way to convey a proper tone to anything AI is suggesting.
