COMMENT: A Patre­on talk by Dave details some ter­ri­fy­ing aspects of the so-called “AI Rev­o­lu­tion.”

On July 4th, Dave ded­i­cat­ed three talks to how we are los­ing our inde­pen­dence to AI. Top­ics cov­ered include: Chat­bots dri­ving peo­ple into psy­chosis; Chat­bots advis­ing psy­chi­atric patients to stop tak­ing their med­ica­tions; Chat­bots telling addicts to “indulge;” AI’s black­mail­ing their oper­a­tors; AI’s cir­cum­vent­ing code designed to turn them off; Mil­i­tary AI’s hav­ing few­er guardrails than civil­ian units.
