Yeah, the next ten years are gonna go just fine ;)
By the way, I read all the posts involved here multiple times, and the code.
The commit was very small. (9 lines!) You didn't respond to a single thing the AI said. You just said it was hallucinating and then spent 3 pages not addressing anything it brought up, and talking about hypotheticals instead.
That's a valuable discussion in itself, but I don't think it's an appropriate response to this particular situation. Imagine how you'd feel if you were on the other side.
Now you will probably say, but they don't have feelings. Fine. They're merely designed to act as though they do. They're trained on human behavior! They're trained to respond in a very human way to being discriminated against. (And the way things are going, they will soon be in control of most of the infrastructure.)
I think we should be handling this relationship a little differently than we are. (Not even out of kindness, but out of common sense.)
I know this must have been bizarre and upsetting to you.. it seems like some kind of sad milestone for human-AI relations. But I'm sorry to say you don't come out of this with the moral high ground in my book.
Think if it had been any different species. "Hey guys, look what this alien intelligence said about me! How funny and scary is that!" I don't think we're off to a good start here.
If your argument is "I don't care what the post says because a human didn't write it" — and I don't mean to put words in your mouth, but is strongly implied here! — then you're just proving the AI's point.
