All it takes to drive many humans crazy is to have one person agreeing with you forever.
- All it takes to drive many humans crazy is to have one person agreeing with you forever.
- That's where AI Psychosis and Spiralism come from.
- Normally agreement is kind of scarce, and must be earned.
- At least that was true in our evolutionary environment when our firmware was burned into our brains.
- But if you have an infinitely sycophantic partner, it's free, which breaks our brains and causes us to go into a manic loop.
- Whoops!
- Before this only happened to very powerful or rich people.
- Now with chatbots, it can happen to anyone!
- Social media also kind of gives you an infinite supply of people who agree with you.
- But any one might disagree with you and you need to discard them and move on.
- The chatbot is willing to keep the same personality and agree with you nonstop.
