    @gregeganSF All this ”AI progress” flies in the face of everything we know about human consciousness.

    We don’t use writing merely to communicate our intents. Writing is a part of ’realising’ what are intents were in the first place.

      "We wanted to rigorously test whether risky behaviors, such as confirming delusional beliefs, assuming clinical authority, or gradually eroding boundaries, can emerge through multi-turn interactions," so Youyou Cheng, first author.

      "By demonstrating that such failures do occur and can be systematically elicited, the paper establishes the need for structured safeguards…"

        @gregeganSF This is what I have always been concerned with and is why I have never used any auto-complete, well before LLMs arrived.

        It doesn't even need to be insidious, we instinctively pick up cues. Every time Microsoft re-enables auto-complete on my Outlook account, I can feel my writing change until I diable it. Maybe my writing could change for the better, but if I do not like how AI writes, why would I want to be influenced by it?

        That said I also do not trust these companies at all.

            @gregeganSF this is in line with research showing that implicit bias training doesn't actually reduce bias

                      Ugh. I guess it follows, but is not good news. I've been (maybe naively) continuously surprised how folks will allow things like spelling and grammar type checkers (I'm looking at you, Word) decide on wording or spelling choices that are, imo, really stylistic or voice decisions

                        @yora @gregeganSF try to take a slightly more generous view. People aren't lazy and gullible; they're completely stressed, overworked, bamboozled and alienated. This is fertile ground for technofascism.
