It’s not just suicide, it’s a golden parachute from God.

Edit: wow imagine the uses for brainwashing terrorists

Or brainwashing possibilities in general.

  • To be fair, this is just the automated version of the kind of brainwashing that happens in cults and religions.

    And also in the more extreme corners of social media and the MSM.

    It's not that Google is saintly, it's that the general background noise of related manipulations is ignored because it's collective and social.

    We have a clearly defined concept of responsibility for direct individual harm, but almost no concept of responsibility for social and political harms.

  • I just had that conversation with GLM-4.7-Flash today. It's rather an inevitability given the architecture, combined with market incentives, failures in corporate governance, and human nature. Was a neat deep dive through latent space, with a dismal depressing destination. But hey, AI is going to be great everybody. Let's burn all the libraries and other indexes and make it our only source of information other than the Internet. This can only go well within 3 generations or so! /s
