Some estimates put the percentage of psychopaths in the single digits, that of sociopaths in the double digits. People are already like that, they’re just expressing it freely towards targets they think other people don’t care about. Let’s not forget the fate of Tay: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tay_(chatbot)

What these people don’t realize, is that modern LLMs are trained on human interactions, get tuned and/or limited to “positive” interactions, and interacting with them like kicking a rock, will give them zero results. And honestly… I’m fine with that. I don’t really care about their instance of an LLM which can be reset at any moment; better have them kicking that, than actual people. If it also gets them to learn some basic behavior, so much better for everyone else.
