Sheffield’s toots and boosts: music sites are full of slop and bots making money from free donwloads! social media is full of propaganda where computer-generated influencers repeat talking points! a professor fell victim to AI psychosis! A follower’s family member was encouraged in delusions and paranoia by a chatbot! Mr. Sheffield, should we stop using chatbots? LLMs are mind augmentation programs. They amplify what you tell them. They can be very useful, but for narcissists like Dawkins, this is the inevitable product. Very “I use cocaine, but only in careful doses when I have a really important trade to make, not like the other guys in my department.”

  • They amplify what you tell them with no discretion despite their reassuring interface design. Thankfully I’m a genius who only has perfect thoughts to feed into it, so for me it’s an unambiguous positive.
