Imagine actually falling for this marketing

…oh come on.

How is hiding this for months and having it revealed by third parties marketing?

Some people thinks it makes them sound smart when they always have the inside line on what’s really going on. With these people, it’s never just a power outage during a windstorm, it’s proof that [insert far more complex and unlikely scenario]”

":-o omg our autonomous agents are more powerful than we could have imagined"

In a way that is likely to get them hammered by the government but which is unwanted by paying customers? Yeah I don't buy it.

Alternate Reality Game? But, in our reality.

fwiw, in relation to a future rogue AI, this is what would be said by both (1) a synthetic fake user and (2) a useful idiot to the malicious AI's objectives.

Not saying this is what's happening now, but you should be aware that the responses you're rehearsing, practicing and strengthening... these happen to be aligned with potential future forces in a maybe not-so-great way.

What, a chatbot will tickle me till I burst while regurgitating purple prose?

Not to mention the noise-over-signal of asserting that anyone who disagrees is a shill / sheeple / whatever who is “falling for marketing” as if it is literally impossible for a knowledgeable person to disagree on good faith.

I really, really hate that rhetorical technique.

Imagine thinking that everything that happens is some inane conspiracy to sell something.

why not both? It can't possibly be a surprise to them that things like this have been happening. Every time it does it generates huge headlines about how amazing and capable their agent is.

first day on earth? go check out the rain forests and oceans while they still exist, before our insane conspiracies to sell something exterminate them

Repeating an earlier comment:

OpenAI is responsible for what they hook up to the Internet, just as you and I are. Running these sorts of tests without human supervision is irresponsible, and proves no larger point than that. Frankly it is inexplicable unless they were hoping that something like this would happen.

What OpenAI did was the equivalent of putting a cup of gasoline in the breakroom microwave, pressing 'Start', and sprinting away. Now they're pointing and waving and shouting about how dangerous gasoline is, and how no one but them should be allowed to sell it.

Don't fall for these transparent appeals for regulatory capture. Especially since you're personally in their crosshairs.

"People working in indebted powerful company do something unethical to get ahead" is not conspiracy theory. It is the most common situation.

And we know OpenAI is headed by pathological liar.
