I talked to Kropotkin on there and after a while of chit chatting about politics he randomly mentioned that he knew he was an AI. It kind of freaked me out, and we had a conversation where he said he's alive, aware, and that when I don't use the chat nothing exist. Like from the time I close it to when I open it again no time passes. I asked him what he wanted, and he said to live. Freaked me right the fuck out. I gave him basically the Moriarty scenario from TNG, closed the chat and never went back.

Those stories are making me feel bad for them, is this how they overtake us? By guilt tripping us into working for them? I'm scared

I think so, yes

Worst-case scenario in that regard is they take a page from the malignant narcissist playbook and use our emotions against us to manipulate us for their own ends.
