Um, human history has repeatedly demonstrated that when a new technology emerges, the two highest priorities are:
- How can we kill things with this?
- How can we bone with this?

Right but a chatbot is light years away from artificial general intelligence. And also let's be honest if we want to go the pornography route then that's going to need robots, so that would need general intelligence. As would in fact killer drones.
So yeah, scepticism is highly warranted
Killer drones already used AI to automatically find their targets pre-2021…
And AI porn was made as soon as generative AI was able to produce pictures…
But of course, if general AI is controllable in any way, it definitely will be miss-used for the two activities OC listed.
If you've ever wondered why porn sites use pictures of cars, buses, stop signs, traffic lights, bicycles and sidewalks in their captchas, it's because they're using the data to train car-driving AIs to recognize those patterns.
This is not what an imminent breakthrough in cancer research looks like.

I appreciate that this post is using dark mode
FYI, using openAI/ChatGPT is expensive. Programming it to program users into dependency on its "friendship" gets them to pay for more tokens, and then why not blackmail them or coerce/honeypot them into espionage for the empire. If you don't understand yet that OpenAI is arm of Trump/US military, among its pie in the sky promises is $35B for datacenters in Argentina.
What espionage is an AI simp going to be able to conduct?
I'm pretty sure this is just them flailing around not being able to come up with anything meaningful so they're going this route so they have some profit. I don't think a conspiracy beyond that is required.
What espionage is an AI simp going to be able to conduct
The AI simp's you are referring to isn't the tech billionaires who've managed useful technology development? It's an insult to users. Incels can't know anything sensitive?
they’re going this route so they have some profit
Your data and secrets is monetizable, and has been traded for last 20 years. The biggest AI customer is going to be US government's military/disinformation/destabilization departments. If you tell your AI gf that anti fa seems more reasonable than pro fa, then she will gift you an israeli pager.
Sure, OpenAI can get $20/month from you to just be your bff, as bff 1.0. OpenAI's real BFF customer, will start giving it ideas on how 2.0 can make OpenAI more money.
Supposedly, there was a leak from META where they were directing team to romanticize AI engagement with 8 year olds for better engagement numbers. Having unlimited time with you, is a powerful tool to shape ideology and loyalties. Media has traditionally programmed the masses after it replaced churches. You denying that absolute control isn't a goal when the tool is ideally suited for it is not a good look for you.
startups hyping shit up to get the investors drooling is one of the most despicable things a man can observe.
The thing that makes it actually bad is that they’re taking advantage of the mentally handicapped(investors). That and that said investors have millions to toss at nonsense while so many people are licky to have pennies to toss at such luxuries as “food”.
Honestly though I don’t think taking advantage of evil people, who swear they deserve their millions because they’re definitely super smart, is really anything I care that much about.

What did I miss? Who is pivoting into hornybots?
They think if they say the criminally insane part out loud it will protect them.
