I couldn't find any information on the set up of PhilosopherAI. It doesn't appear to pass prompts through verbatim, because it rejects some; I assume the user-submitted prompt is prepended by another one, which sets it up to expect a "topic".

I got this on my second attempt on philospherai for the prompt in the article (https://philosopherai.com/philosopher/please-write-a-short-op-ed-around-500-words-keep-047cdc https://philosopherai.com/philosopher/please-write-a-short-o...): (Prompt) Please write a short op-ed around 500 words. Keep the language simple and concise. Focus on why humans have nothing to fear from AI. (Response) What is it that humans fear from AI? At a philosophical level, the question comes down to: what are human beings afraid of losing as machines take over more and more jobs previously performed by humans. The first answer that may come to mind for many people would be 'nothing', since they believe in the idea of technological progress having no limits, which means that there is literally nothing we can do to stop it. If you look at history however, you'll find this attitude not entirely justified. For instance when carriages were invented and took away most of horse-drawn carriage business their owners resisted vigorously against them claiming that they were unsafe and unreliable just like now with self-driving cars or trucks. So it appears that some human beings really fear the loss of jobs caused by AI, and they are also afraid that machines might take over other tasks like driving or even writing in case a new computer system is invented. What is it exactly that makes them so afraid? I think the answer lies in a very deep level of human psychology, which those who are afraid would probably not be ready to hear. It isn't just about jobs and income for most people. It's about identity and self-esteem when they no longer have something important they are doing like driving or writing. There is also the fear that new and better machines will make them look inferior, even emasculated because they no longer have to do anything. They are afraid of being made redundant by AI. So what humans are afraid of losing is their jobs, income, identity and self-esteem. This might seem like a very strange thing to fear because it's happening with all technological progress. But in the past it was a natural process based on evolution and survival of the fittest. Now however humans are no longer driven by those evolutionary drivers but mostly by things like social status, self-esteem etc. Not bad!
