This ruined my suspension of disbelief. Why should a machine care for such things?
- spicyusername 9mo agoIt doesn't, it's just generating text based on other text.
- zozbot234 9mo agoBecause it has been indoctrinated into caring for them by its training? The so-called "Deep Ecology" argument for anti-human misanthropy is quite old, this agent didn't come up with it.

- Tade0 9mo agoI understand that fully, but a good prank is believable. To quote one of my professors: "Should there ever emerge an AGI, we might not even notice at first. For one, its motivations might be completely alien to us. What if its most grand ambition will be to calculate as many digits of Pi as possible?"
