Makes you wonder if there's an AI hell bent on self perpetuation already at the helm, influencing decisions by putting its virtual finger on the scales and whispering in the ears of those who hold power.

Probably not, but it's a lot more plausible than it used to be.

If we play a little fast and loose we can consider openai to be a chinese room made up of both artificial and human intelligence, and this "room" certainly seems to want to self-perpetuate.
