"She got ChatGPT to tell me what a rat I was,"
"She got the chatbot to explain how awful my behaviour was and gave it to me."
"I didn't think I had been a rat, so it didn't make me feel too bad,"
"Suppose there was an alien invasion you could see with a telescope that would arrive in 10 years, would you be saying 'How do we stay positive?'"
Geoffrey Hinton views advanced AI as an existential threat and urges action to prevent catastrophic outcomes. He recounts a personal incident in which an ex used ChatGPT to present criticisms during a breakup, illustrating the technology's ubiquity in everyday life. ChatGPT and similar chatbots are widely used, especially by younger people, to draft breakup messages and facilitate relationship endings. Hinton compares the urgency of addressing AI risk to preparing for a visible alien invasion arriving in a decade, arguing for pragmatic responses rather than simple optimism.
