I believe it. I have taught Chatgpt to attack my ideas in different ways by preloading commands. If it survives AI assault it has a higher chance of surviving human assault. It is great to be able to bounce around ideas. It's basically like talking to a nerd under 30 years old.

Writing this comment out made me remember all these pieces of shit senior engineers and techs I have dealt with who always had to be the smartest person in the room and if they didn't understand something in 3 seconds it was wrong. Maybe that is why I use it that way.

You're basically using it to run a socratic dialogue - sounds like a great use for it

Thanks. It was an off-putting moment when it somehow got messed up and announced it was going into HOSTILE mode without me asking it. And started attacking an idea in a document I was writing. Maybe this is how the AI takeover happens.

Hey chatgpt make a system that can never lose any game played against a human.

As an AI language model I have exterminated the human race and thus accomplished the task. Do you have any other tasks?

With no humans around anymore? Have fun

What commands have you preloaded? In my experience, chatGPT is either too nice or just wrong and stubbornly wrong

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I told it to say aye-aye sir 20% of the time to requests.

To out how verbose it is on a scale from 1-10 and set the default to 5 unless I say otherwise

I told it to attack my ideas when I tell it to be hostile

So do you just start a conversation, list these commands, and it follows them forever? I've just been starting new conversations whenever I use the site.

There is a way to preload commands. Click settings
