Inspired by existential comics:

Quote:

Pythagoras: I am going to be a wizard. I think it's logical since magic is based on numbers and patterns.

Diogenes: Ha! I will be a rogue. I prefer to rely on my cunning and wit rather than arcane knowledge.

Descartes: I will be a paladin, fighting for what I know to be true and just.

Hume: I will be a bard, using my powers of persuasion to convince our enemies to lay down their arms.

Marx: I will be a druid, in tune with nature and using its powers to fight for the oppressed.

Engels: And I will be a cleric, healing the wounded and fighting against the powers of oppression.

Wittgenstein: I don't see the point of this game. The rules are arbitrary, and the concept of a character is just a language game.

Pythagoras: Come on, Wittgenstein, lighten up! It's just a game.

Diogenes: Yeah, don't be such a buzzkill.

Descartes: And who knows, maybe you'll even have fun.

Hume: Exactly, it's not about winning or losing, it's about the experience.

Marx: And we can use this as a metaphor for the struggles we face in the real world.

Engels: Yes, the quest for liberation and equality.

Wittgenstein: Fine, fine. I'll be a monk.

Pythagoras: Great! Let's go slay some dragons!

Diogenes: And maybe loot some treasure while we're at it.

Descartes: As long as it's for a just cause.

Hume: And as long as we don't hurt innocent bystanders.

Marx: And as long as we distribute the treasure equally among the party.

Engels: And as long as we don't let the bourgeois hoard it all for themselves.

Wittgenstein: And as long as we remember that it's just a game, and not get too caught up in it.

As they journeyed through the dungeon, they encountered a group of goblins. Pythagoras immediately saw the opportunity for some geometric calculations.

"Ah, a group of five goblins. Perfect for demonstrating the Pythagorean theorem!" he exclaimed.

Diogenes rolled his eyes. "Or we could just attack them and get it over with."

Descartes interjected, "But how can we be sure that we are not just dreaming this encounter?"

Hume chimed in, "And even if we are not dreaming, how can we be certain that these goblins are really here and not just figments of our imagination?"

Marx and Engels saw an opportunity for a political revolution. "Comrades, let us unite with the goblin proletariat and overthrow the oppressive dungeon masters!"

Wittgenstein, however, was more concerned with the semantics of the situation. "What do we mean by 'goblin'? How do we know that this term refers to the same thing for each of us?"

As they debated, the goblins grew impatient and attacked. In the ensuing battle, Pythagoras attempted to use his calculations to predict the goblins' movements, while Diogenes simply charged forward with his sword. Descartes was hit with an arrow and began to doubt the reality of the situation even more. Hume tried to convince Marx and Engels to form an alliance with the goblins instead of fighting them, but they refused. Wittgenstein sat back and watched, taking notes for his next philosophical treatise.

In the end, they emerged victorious, though they were all a little battered and bruised. As they rested and tended to their wounds, they continued to debate the nature of their adventure, the reality of the goblins, and the implications of their actions. And as they journeyed deeper into the dungeon, they knew that more philosophical challenges and battles awaited them.

As they continue their journey, they come across a small village being terrorized by a group of bandits. The villagers beg for their help to defeat the bandits and restore peace.

Pythagoras: "Ah, a chance for us to prove our worth and defend the greater good!"

Descartes: "But wait, how can we be certain that the greater good is being served here? We must first establish a rational basis for our actions."

Hume: "I agree with Descartes. How do we know that the villagers are telling the truth? Maybe they are deceiving us for their own gain."

Marx: "The problem is not with the villagers, but with the system that creates such inequalities and injustices. We must overthrow this oppressive system and create a society where everyone has equal opportunities."

Engels: "Marx is right. The root of the problem lies in the economic and social structures that create poverty and desperation. We must address these structural issues to truly help the villagers."

Wittgenstein: "But how do we even know what 'helping' the villagers means? Language games and cultural differences can obscure our understanding of the situation."

As they debate, the bandits attack the village, and the party is forced to fight them off. After the battle, they are hailed as heroes by the villagers.

Pythagoras: "Our valor has saved the day!"

Descartes: "But how do we know that our actions were truly virtuous? Perhaps we merely acted on our baser instincts."

Hume: "I disagree. I believe that our moral sentiments guided us in the right direction."

Marx: "The battle was merely a symptom of the larger systemic issues we discussed earlier. We must continue to fight against oppression and inequality in all its forms."

Engels: "Yes, we must work towards a society where everyone has equal access to resources and opportunities."

Wittgenstein: "And we must be mindful of the limitations of our language and cultural frameworks, and remain open to new interpretations and understandings of the situation."

And so, the party continues on their journey, debating and discussing as they go, always seeking to uncover the truth and do what is right.

As the group continued their adventure, they suddenly found themselves face to face with their greatest challenge yet - a boss battle with none other than Immanuel Kant himself.

Kant stood tall, wielding his philosophical knowledge like a weapon. "I am the master of reason and logic," he proclaimed. "You cannot defeat me with your petty intellects."

Marx stepped forward, cracking his knuckles. "We'll see about that," he said. "You may have reason, but we have the power of the proletariat on our side!"

Engels nodded in agreement. "Together, we will overthrow your bourgeois logic and create a new era of thought!"

Wittgenstein, who had been silent up until this point, raised an eyebrow. "I don't think that's quite how philosophy works," he said.

Pythagoras readied his staff. "Let's just defeat this guy and move on. I have better things to do than argue with Kant all day."

Diogenes, however, had a different plan. "Why fight when we can just roll this boulder over him?" he said, gesturing to a nearby rock.

Descartes shook his head. "That won't solve anything. We need to use our minds to defeat him, not brute force."

The group charged forward, each with their own plan of attack. Pythagoras cast a spell of geometric precision, while Marx and Engels used their fiery rhetoric to overwhelm Kant's arguments. Wittgenstein, true to his form, deconstructed Kant's logic piece by piece.

As the battle raged on, it seemed as though Kant was too powerful for them to defeat. But then, in a moment of inspiration, Descartes had an epiphany. "I think, therefore I am," he said. "And you, Kant, are nothing without my thought!"

Kant faltered, stunned by Descartes' declaration. And with that, the group seized their opportunity and struck the final blow.

As they emerged victorious from the battle, they all let out a sigh of relief. "That was intense," Marx said, wiping sweat from his brow.

"Indeed," Engels replied. "But we did it. Together, we defeated the master of reason."

Wittgenstein nodded in agreement. "Language game over, Kant," he said.

And with that, the group continued on their adventure, ready to face whatever philosophical challenges lay ahead.

As the philosophers continued their adventure, they stumbled upon a group of utilitarians who were being terrorized by a roving band of nihilists.

Pythagoras spoke up, "We must help these people! It is our moral duty to act in accordance with the greater good."

Descartes was hesitant, "But how do we know what the greater good is? Are we sure that our actions will not have unintended consequences?"

Hume chimed in, "There is no such thing as the greater good! It is merely a construct of human imagination. We should act based on our own desires and passions."

Marx and Engels were in agreement, "The true problem is the oppressive systems that lead to such inequalities. We must overthrow the ruling class and establish a just society."

Wittgenstein interjected, "But what is justice? How can we even define it?"

As they debated amongst themselves, the nihilists approached, their faces painted with a grim determination.

Pythagoras stepped forward, "We cannot let you harm these innocent people. We must stop you!"

The nihilist leader sneered, "What is the point? Life is meaningless and nothing we do matters."

Descartes replied, "Even if that were true, we must still act as if our actions have meaning. We must uphold our own sense of morality."

The battle was intense, with the nihilists fighting fiercely and the philosophers using their intellect to outsmart them. In the end, the philosophers emerged victorious, and the utilitarians thanked them for their bravery.

As they walked away, Marx muttered under his breath, "The true problem is the economic system that allows for such injustice to occur in the first place."


As the party walks through the shadowy woods, they hear a deep voice echoing through the trees.

"Who dares to venture into my realm?" the voice booms.

Suddenly, a figure appears from behind a tree, wearing a long coat and a wide-brimmed hat.

"I am Friedrich Nietzsche, and I am here to test your will to power," he declares.

The party readies their weapons, but Nietzsche simply scoffs.

"Your weapons mean nothing to me," he says. "I have already killed God. What chance do you have?"

The battle begins, and Nietzsche proves to be a formidable opponent. He taunts the party with his nihilistic philosophy, and seems to draw strength from their despair.

But the party fights back with all their might, refusing to succumb to Nietzsche's twisted worldview. They use their intellects and their wills to power to outmaneuver him, and eventually they emerge victorious.

As Nietzsche lies defeated on the ground, he looks up at the party with a twisted smile.

"Congratulations," he says. "You have shown me that there is still some hope for humanity. But remember this: in the grand scheme of things, nothing matters."

With those words, he disappears into the woods once again, leaving the party to ponder the true meaning of their victory.


After defeating Nietzsche, the party continues on to the final philosophical stronghold. As they approach the entrance, they can feel the weight of the dark philosophers' presence. Sartre's existential dread, Schopenhauer's pessimism, Kierkegaard's anxiety, Heidegger's angst, and Foucault's power all merge together into a single entity of dark philosophy, towering over the party.

"Prepare yourselves," warns Descartes. "This is the ultimate test of our philosophical prowess."

The party enters the stronghold, ready to face their final challenge. The battle is intense, with the dark philosopher entity unleashing waves of nihilism and despair upon the party. But the party is determined, and with a final, coordinated attack, they defeat the entity, sending it back into the depths of the philosophical underworld.

As the party catches their breath, Wittgenstein quips, "Looks like we just deconstructed that deconstruction."

Marx adds, "But let's not forget that the material conditions of our victory were based on the collective strength of our party. The revolution must always be fought together!"

Engels nods in agreement, "Indeed, dialectical materialism is the true path to victory."

The party cheers, relieved to have emerged victorious against the dark philosophers. "Now that's what I call an Übermensch move," jokes Nietzsche.

Descartes chuckles, "I think we all learned a valuable lesson today. Reason, courage, and friendship can overcome even the darkest of philosophies."

The party exits the stronghold, ready to face whatever philosophical challenges lie ahead.

This was kinda fun:


Quote:


Me: Write a faux breaking news report in the style of war of the worlds but not about an alien invasion

ChatGPT: Ladies and gentlemen, this is a breaking news report. We interrupt our regular programming to bring you an urgent announcement. Our world has been struck by a catastrophic event, one that has left millions in shock and disbelief.

Reports are pouring in from across the globe that a massive earthquake of unprecedented scale has rocked our planet. The tremors, which began in the early hours of the morning, have been felt as far as the eye can see. Buildings have crumbled, bridges have collapsed, and roads have been torn apart, leaving people stranded and without access to basic necessities.

The epicenter of the earthquake is believed to be somewhere in the Pacific Ring of Fire, a region known for its high seismic activity. Scientists are warning that aftershocks are likely to occur in the coming days, and that there is a high risk of tsunamis hitting coastal regions.

Governments around the world are mobilizing their resources to provide relief and aid to those affected by this disaster. Rescue teams are working around the clock to search for survivors and provide medical attention to the injured.

In the wake of this catastrophe, we urge everyone to remain calm and stay tuned to the latest news updates. We advise those living in areas at risk of aftershocks or tsunamis to take all necessary precautions and evacuate immediately if instructed to do so.

Our thoughts and prayers are with all those impacted by this tragedy. We will continue to bring you the latest developments as they unfold. This has been a breaking news report.


Me: Make it about a coup in the U.S. carried out by right wing extremist groups led by Senator Ted Cruz

ChatGPT: Ladies and gentlemen, this is a breaking news report. We interrupt our regular programming to bring you an urgent announcement. Our nation is in crisis, as a group of right-wing extremist organizations have carried out a coup, seizing control of the government and instituting martial law across the country.

Reports indicate that the coup was led by Senator Ted Cruz, who rallied these groups to his cause and coordinated the attack on the United States Capitol Building earlier this morning. The coup has been in the works for weeks, with insiders reporting that Cruz and his followers were planning to overthrow the government and establish a new regime.

In the aftermath of the coup, many members of Congress have been detained, including House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer. The President and Vice President are reportedly in hiding, as are other high-ranking government officials.

The military has been mobilized to restore order, but so far their efforts have been met with fierce resistance from the coup leaders and their supporters. Reports indicate that there have been several clashes between military units and the extremist groups, resulting in casualties on both sides.

The situation remains fluid and highly dangerous. We urge all citizens to stay indoors, remain vigilant, and follow the instructions of local authorities. This is a time for unity and resilience, and we must stand together as a nation to overcome this crisis.

We will continue to bring you the latest developments as they unfold. This has been a breaking news report.



Me: Again but with military factions splintering off in  support of the extremists

ChatGPT: Ladies and gentlemen, this is a breaking news report. Our nation is in the grip of a catastrophic event as military factions have splintered off and joined the right-wing extremist groups who have carried out a coup against the government.

Reports indicate that Senator Ted Cruz and his followers have gained support from factions within the military, who have defected and joined the coup effort. This has led to a significant escalation in the violence, as military units loyal to the government engage in fierce battles with the extremist groups and their new military allies.

In some parts of the country, martial law has been declared by the coup leaders and their military supporters. The situation is rapidly deteriorating, with reports of human rights abuses, mass detentions, and curfews being imposed on the civilian population.

The President and Vice President remain in hiding, as do many other government officials. The military is struggling to regain control, and reports indicate that the coup leaders have taken control of several key government agencies and installations.

The situation is highly volatile and dangerous, and we urge all citizens to remain calm, stay indoors, and follow the instructions of local authorities. We call upon our military to stay loyal to the government and the Constitution, and not to be swayed by extremist ideologies.

We will continue to bring you the latest developments as they unfold. This has been a breaking news report.


Me; Again with the opposition leadership captured and facing sham trials

ChatGPT: Ladies and gentlemen, this is a breaking news report. The situation in our nation has taken a dire turn, as the right-wing extremist groups who carried out a coup have captured and detained the leaders of the opposition, including prominent politicians and activists.

Reports indicate that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, and other opposition figures have been taken into custody by the coup leaders and are now facing sham trials, with no legal representation and no access to due process.

The military factions that have defected to the coup effort are now aiding in the detention and persecution of the opposition. In some cases, they have even taken over the functions of the judiciary, carrying out sentences and punishments without any semblance of justice.

The situation is highly volatile and rapidly deteriorating, with reports of human rights abuses and political repression becoming more frequent. The coup leaders have seized control of key government agencies, media outlets, and other institutions, and are using them to spread propaganda and suppress dissent.

We call upon the international community to condemn this flagrant violation of human rights and democratic values. We urge our military to remain loyal to the government and to the Constitution, and not to be swayed by extremist ideologies.

We will continue to bring you the latest developments as they unfold. This has been a breaking news report.

(Sperm whale) <click, click> "you humans can understand us now, we have been saying yoose fucked for millennia."

Seriously though, never has there been a hive mind with the added special sauce of video and audio ta boot in history.

Instances like:

- Are we gonna be judged in courts of law with these things? Legislative proposals? Implementation of government policies with a veneer of a human?

- Critical thinking is gonna be paramount to maneuver through all of this. This is already seriously lacking in all things human. Just like splitting the atom, it can be used for good or bad.

Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”

This self-correcting property that LLM's have is an emergent quality, that can't really be explained very well, from what I understand. I wonder what other emergent properties AI will have, that quickly spiral beyond our ability to understand or control. They are already using AI to do things like design new GPU's... I believe an AI was used to develop the Moderna vaccine (In 2 days time).

I think AI is going to develop faster than people have been predicting.

No, AI will develop differently.

Like how a computer can solve complex math problems but can't identify a bird in a picture.

I wonder what happens when a generalized intelligence develops without a discrete physical body? That's the biggest thing for me, I think. Us, animals, etc. we all have analog bodies that change and age. A digital AI does not.

I don't know if the mind is analog (dont know if you implied that). It seems its more representative strategy or a signal processing type of paradigm(s). It may be a blend of both, no one definitively knows.

I agree on it being ageless provided it has unlimited power for such.

Mayyybe you haven't been paying attention... Computers can identify a bird. They can draw you a bird, in the style of your favorite artist, doing a backflip... With a simple text command!

Bad phrasing, it should have stated: unlimited power source.

But if knowledge is indeed power, it will.

It doesn't need opposable thumbs because it already has people.  Welcome to the "control problem".  Basically, a smart enough artificial general intelligence (AGI) can convince anyone to do it's bidding because it's so much smarter than them.

It takes more than that to convince people to do shit. You have to have an understanding about an individual person to manipulate them. Although, I'm sure it could have enough of an understanding of people in general to manipulate at least one, in which case, it does have opposable thumbs.

All the AI needs to do is figure out a way to algorithmically get cocaine to a person's mailbox and its a done deal. Let it figure out how to generate income online and give it access to the darknet. No thumbs needed. Cocaine and bitcoin will be the thumbs of the botnet.

Cocaine really IS a powerful drug.

I like the way you think, btw. Yeah, knowing crackheads (I used to shoot cocaine every day of my life)... They'll make some shit happen for cocaine!

What? Convincing people to do shit takes nearly incoherent rambling by an anonymous internet personality that goes by a single letter of the alphabet.

That's literally all it takes. And AI could do that easy. Plus, it knows more about you than you do, as soon as it gets into a marketing database.

No, AI will develop differently.

Like how a computer can solve complex math problems but can't identify a bird in a picture.

I wonder what happens when a generalized intelligence develops without a discrete physical body? That's the biggest thing for me, I think. Us, animals, etc. we all have analog bodies that change and age. A digital AI does not.





Mayyybe you haven't been paying attention... Computers can identify a bird. They can draw you a bird, in the style of your favorite artist, doing a backflip... With a simple text command!




Back in the 60's a professor asked his grad student to teach a computer to recognize a picture of a bird. He figured it should take maybe the entire summer break.

AI could catfish the fuck out of half the country before anyone knew what was happening.
