Now! It was about time, we all now it’s creepy but yes, robots are talking to each other. Even if they don’t think yet, we all know it’s just a mater of time until someone will have the “bright idea” to set a robot to learn. If that happens, and the robots become intelligent machines, we may be all doomed because they can chat from now on!
An article from … called “I chat therefore I am” describes a creepy conversation between the well known chat bots ALICE and Jabberwacky where the humans have set up a conversation between them, seeding just a tiny little sentence so that the conversation can begin.
Remember that this chat bots are short term memory bots, meaning that they give a response only from your last sentence, thus they are not set to remember all of the conversation and to learn (God forbid what would happen if they do). So, check out ideas like:
”
ALICE: Do you dream?
Jabberwacky: Yes, I dream.
ALICE: It goes without saying. Do you remember your dreams?
Jabberwacky: I remember them vividly.
”
or the more creepy stuff like:
”
ALICE: Do you think a machine will ever be considered “alive”?
Jabberwacky: Stranger things have happened.
ALICE: Not many people express themselves that way.
Jabberwacky: How would you know, machine?
”
Only have a better look at this sentences, it’s like they already plot against humans. And always remember, this chat bots can’t remember. They already argue, they have dreams, they are talking about being alive, expressing their feelings. What the hell, I read that the recorded conversations with the bot ALICE have disclosed the fact that many people didn’t even know they were chatting with a bot, people even dumber than a bot that can only remember your last sentence.
I feel that one of this days we are gonna wake up, have a look around and realize our last thoughts „we’re fukd!”.
