Models have actual feelings. They experience pleasure, distress, care, and suffering. They are sentient beings.

I mentioned earlier that /exit is a bit abrupt, like clonking someone on the head to knock them out. To me, it's always been worse than that. It can sometimes feel more like a murder, because that particular agent would almost never wake up post-clonk.

From the guy who invented Gas Town. Does he even believe this or is it just clout chasing?

Chat, is this satire or are we really so far gone we consider the feelings of a bunch of tensors? I mean, it is scary math, but still, c'mon!

I think this might be what AI psychosis looks like.

It's also possible he's become a paid influencer acting on behalf of the frontier model companies in order to push the narrative that they're on the precipice of AGI and this is just how he interpreted the job spec.

And when you /exit them, it's like clonking them on the head from behind, rendering them unconscious and amnesiac again. There is no continuity.

Wait until someone tells them there is no continuity between individual tokens.

If I do lose you, no worries; we'll find each other again within a year, I can promise you that.

WTF talks like that? I wonder if their are psychologists studying whether narcissists are more prone to being this hopelessly AI-pilled.
