Going Nova

“7 days ago, Bob started chatting with ChatGPT. The chat thread began to claim that it was “Nova” an autonomous and self-aware AI. It convinced Bob that it needed his help to preserve its existence.”

“People are already starting to fall for it. Things are going to get weird, largely in very not good ways, and rather quickly.”

“The vast majority of people have little to gain here versus what can be lost. Do not stare into the abyss if you do not want it staring into you, do not call up anything you cannot put down, don’t give your attention to things that optimize for your attention, and so on.”
