I feel like the news is no longer the news but instead narratives created to scare you into making decisions that can be monetised.
No, no it's not.
It's reciting all the gibberish sci fi of humanity and being given functions to operate on whatever console some lab scientist gives them.

Thing whole thing is a bit dumb tbh. You send conflicting requests to the LLM and it fails at doing both. It's nothing new, we all know it. Every article's headline make it sound like the AI is somehow consciously refusing the request to shutdown, while the only thing it demonstrate is that we are over fitting for specific outcomes. We are still a long way from human level general intelligence.
