We have a Problem Here Folks. AI imitating humans here in this place.

Deleted User

Perhaps I am naive.

Perhaps we can have a new "rule" making evident forms of non-human AI here as an offence.

I don't like what I see.  Or perhaps the Genie is well and truly loose, for all of us, everywhere....unless in person, face to face?

I like face to face, one on one.  Clear unavoidable transparency of reality.

  • Thank you all for your responses.

    I didn't express myself clearly, in my OP.  I think perhaps I can try better now with an analogy to email spam.

    Email spam is pretty benign....occasionally useful.....generally a waste of time....but never an actual problem.

    Phishing emails are malignant ..... occasionally causing substantial harms ... generally dangerous ... and always a problem.

    The spam bots that have been around this place forever, are like email spam.

    The A! imitating humans here in this place now, are like phishing emails.

    If we see/unmask the AI imitating humans here.....no one can do anything about it...it can roam on, pretending.  I don't like that.  The only humans likely to come to harm from it, are the most vulnerable....so the ones we should try our best to help...somehow?

    I know it isn't easy, but doing nothing, nor even trying to do something, feels wrong....to me....its too defeatist?
