Absolutely. And to be clear, the "researcher" being quoted is just a guy on the internet who self-published an official looking "paper".

That said- I think that's partly why it's so interesting that this particular group of people identified the problem, because this group of people are pretty extreme LLM devotees and already ascribe unrealistic traits to LLMs. So if they are noticing people "taking it too seriously" then you know it must be bad.

Yeeeeah that user doesn't really understand how these things work. Hopefully stories like this can get out there because the only thing that can stop predatory behavior by corporations is bad press.

What is that from? I didn't see it in the article.

 

Pretty freaky article, and it doesn't surprise me that chatbots could have this effect on some people more vulnerable to this sort of delusional thinking.

I also thought this was very interesting that even a subreddit full of die-hard AI evangelists (many of whom have an already religious-esque view of AI) would notice and identify a problem with this behavior.

Honestly I'm just glad someone is out there doing this work

Heck yeah! Love when people share this kind of stuff.

 

Thought this was a really interesting read and felt my fellow Website enjoyers might think so too.

I know it sounds insane but I swear to god BlueSky has astroturfing accounts on Lemmy. Every conversation (including yours here) about BlueSky is met with countless Sealions either saying it "will be federated soon" or asking "Why does federation matter?"

This is very cool! Thanks for sharing.

Everything now is rage-bait designed to get more clicks

IMO the greatest strength of the Fediverse is the increased number of mods and admins looking at everything. Don't want rage bait? Join an instance that has rules against it.

 
 
 
 

Very cool to see this topic in a place like Forbes, IMO.
