ChaosGPT, the autonomous AI program that hopes to “destroy humans” and gain “power and dominance,” is now attempting to gain Twitter followers in order to manipulate and control them. The video of how it’s going about this is an interesting window into the current state of easily accessible AI tools, which is to say, we do not currently have much to fear.
An anonymous programmer modified the open-source app, Auto-GPT, to create their version called ChaosGPT. The user gave it the goals of destroying humanity, establishing global dominance, causing chaos and destruction, and controlling humanity through manipulation. ChaosGPT is also run in “continuous mode,” which means that it won’t stop until it achieves its goals.
