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?

    What makes you think there's AI successfully pretending to be human here? Where is there an example of that?

    Hello sunspot.

    I'm not a fan of officiousness.  Nobody elected me as a vigilante guardian.  I see what I see and I do what I do.  I've been around a while.  I'm not prone to calling wolf....and nor is it my place to vilify the wolves.  Take me at my word, or don't - I have no problem with either stance.

    "Outing" instances is not a path I wish to embark upon.  I hope that is a reasonable and defensible position that you can respect, even if you do not wholly understand the reasoning or value of my principles.  I'm a complex imaginary number.

    Number.

          my thinking is that bots return to the same subject of contention over and over, no matter the threads subject and often segue to it out of the blue within a thread.: like nonconsecutive.

        The bot also does not read like a real person, they change opinions and are irrational, even within the same sentience. they use a lot trigger words. some sentences are just strings of trigger words. They also don't have real profiles. There is nothing really there. that's what Ive observed.

        Also the grammar and syntax is always predictable, no matter how "Excited" the bot is pretending to be, they trot along at a steady pace.

    Hi dear #, can you tell us what would be a "tell"? How are you spotting them? I think it would be fun to join in, like train spotting or something.
