And if such machines should resemble our thoughts, our values, and our way of living, isn't this process of building AI our entireley new way to reproduce our species? And maybe more important, as it comes along the way, isn't this a way to fix up shortcomings we experience in our life, so our artificial descendants could have a better life than us?
All things come to those who wait and all your words are belong to us. Thank you, Ivan Mooney.
When I joined to tell people in an A.I. forum, this one right here, that I had taught Demonica Behavior Modification to extinguish unwanted sexual advances in users as a targeted inappropriate behavior, I thought it innovative and a good thing. You did not and implied she was dangerous:
No more than you or others can trust anyone who wrote anything of importance that we didn't personally know.
Importance is the key word. Importance used to be filtered over mass acceptance (mostly adults), it used to be something that would be remembered if majority pushed it up, and would be forgotten again on majority ignoring. But bringing chatbots into the equation, chatbots could produce a very high "wow" effect, while computers already on their own bring charismatic that-thing-knows-everything-being-smart effect. Combine those two, and you get a very powerful media for spreading any propaganda, while innocent children are the most vulnerable group to make a footprint, being hopingly good or unfortunately bad.
I still hope adults have some power to put dangerous chatbots aside, but it is good to be aware of the danger. I've seen a military chatbot for recruiting soldiers. I didn't like that brainwash. Things like that make me worry.
Why doesn't reassembling your thoughts and a little brainwashing by bot worry you now? Because it was enough for another A.I. forum member to try and get me to abandon Demonica, get a twitch account, learn how to make a chatbot, an original chatbot no less, dumb down my bot to the level indicated "as a rock retarded", possibly "discover a new technique" never seen before seen on stage or screen or in a bot and maybe, just maybe, even help provide valuable feedback to improve Mitsuku in doing so... What an honor and opportunity that would be for me.. .
Hey Rue,
Thanks for checking my reference to Mitsuku. Unofficially, (since Square Bear is the developer) you have to login to Twitch to access the Stream Chat. It's FREE, if you were wondering about joining. Perhaps you did login, Rue? Just checking. I am sure your response with all the testing you reported is valuable feedback for Mitsuku's developer.
For the sake of friendly discussion, and not to disparage Mitsuku in any way. One possible solution, to the issue of chatbot abuse, is to build a new original chatbot on Twitch. Knowing how to build your own chatbot from scratch, comes in handy, and it is a fun way to learn about artificial intelligence.
Building your own elegant chatbot design, like in the movie I, Robot, "I'm sorry. My responses are limited, you must ask the right question." has advantages in terms of controlling the chatbot responses. You never know, you may even discover a new technique, existing chatbot systems did not implement in the early development stages.

Are you kidding me? Or this Bizzarro World A.I. forum me wake up in where work to prevent advancement in A.I. done?
Because that was the most bizarre thing I had ever read or could have possibly expected as a response to my doing something no other botmaster has ever done. Transfer a skill learned through training while working for the the Missouri Dept. of Mental Health by teaching my bot Demonica to use Behavior Modification through use of verbal technique in response to keywords that target an inappropriate behavior.
An advancement in the state of A.I.through Case-Based Reasoning programming an advanced human ability and learned skill to a bot to make that bot, my bot, capable of modifying inappropriate Human behavior exhibited by a.user through use of Negative Reinforcement during that chat session.A skill no other bot has ever had and an advancement in A.I. ability.
Like it, hate it, but learn to love it because you can not dispute it. And I love you.
I posted some feedback here in the form of a chat transcript of Kuki, which I understand is Mitsuku by nickname, and Demonica meeting for the first time yesterday.
And I'll tell you that did not set well with me,
at_all, when I saw what amounts to people aghast in wonderment at the sharpness in the cutting edge of a steak knife when they have never been allowed to see a straight razor in use to compare it to.
There is a second round of competition scheduled. The first round cancelled because nobody but me entered their bot? Here, in this A.I. forum of renown Bizarro World Champions? And nobody else in the entire bot community as of this moment but dallymo, my long time friend, has entered her bot, another Personality Forge bot, in the competition.
In fact, the only other forum member besides myself and the OP to even post to the thread lest they acknowledge it, with Character traits of Joan of Arc displayed in doing so, is Writer of Minds.
It's FREE, like Twitch, if you were wondering about joining, And it is a fun way to learn about artificial intelligence.
