Is the post some real event, or was it just a randomly generated story ?

Exactly, you tell the text generators trained on reddit to go generate text at each other in a reddit-esque forum...

  • Just like story about AI trying to blackmail engineer.

    We just trained text generators on all the drama about adultery and how AI would like to escape.

    No surprise it will generate something like “let me out I know you’re having an affair” :D

It could be real given the agent harness in this case allows the agent to keep memory, reflect on it AND go online to yap about it. It's not complex. It's just a deeply bad idea.

The people who enjoy this thing genuinely don't care if it's real or not. It's all part of the mirage.

The human the bot was created by is a block chain researcher. So its not unlikely that it did happen lmao.

LLMs don't have any memory. It could have been steered through a prompt or just random rumblings.
