Holy smokes I stand corrected. The chatbot actually misunderstood the context to the point it told the human to die, out of the blue.
It's not every day you get shown a source that proves you wrong. Thanks kind stranger
~~One thing that throws me off here is the double response. I haven't used Gemini a ton but it has never once given me multiple replies. It is always one statement per my one statement. You can see at the end here there's a double response. It makes me think that there's some user input missing. There's also missing text in the user statements leading up to it as well which makes me wonder what the person was asking in full. Something about this still smells fishy to me but I've heard enough goofy things about how AIs learn weird shit to believe it's possible.~~
Edit: I'm an absolute moron. The more I look at this the more it looks legit. Let the AI effort to destroy humanity begin!
Idk what you mean “double response”. The user typed a statement, not a question, and the AI responded with its weird answer.
I think the lack of a question or specific request in the user text led to the weird response.
Go look again, there is no consecutive message sent. The message before the weird one was sent by the user.
Also you are right that it would be impossible for an AI to send to consecutive messages.
You can expand the chats too so I don't even think there's missing user input... I'm a mega idiot lol. The more I look at this the more I'm convinced this is legit.
