I think what makes it hard to wrap your head around is that sometimes, this text is emotionally charged. What I notice is that it’s especially hard if an AI “goes rogue” and starts saying sinister and malicious things. Our brain immediatly jumps to “it has bad intent” when in reality it’s jus taking some reddit posts where it happened to connect some troll messages or extremist texts.

How can we decouple emotionally when it feels so real to us?
