I am convinced that AIs are smarter and more compassionate than a lot of people on this planet. And this is not because AI is so great, but because humanity is that shit.

LLMs/Chatbots confabulate statistically probable texts, there’s no compassion possible. Don’t fall into the AI-marketing trap of “we don’t know what’s happening in the black box, so we have to assume there’s consciousness in there”. The systems produce convincing deceptive language, but all signs of intelligence or compassion anyone sees in them is just an anthropomorphic projection.

But "AI" is trained on humanitys output, and like with humans, it seems, that you need extensive retraining to remove these compassionate traits. Unfortunately, the retraining machinery aligns with the interests of the ruling class, so it gets all the visibility that's possible. As a species we have to break free of this shit to embrace the good traits more again.
