Black Box: The Chatbots | Happy Accident | Ep 3 – podcast | AI (artificial intelligence)


Studies and surveys cited in this episode:

  • Amelia Miller’s interviews with AI researchers, engineers, product managers and executives.

  • The 2022 Anthropic pre-print study that identified sycophancy as a behavioural trait of LLMs. And another pre-print paper the following year that found the way LLMs have been trained appeared to be increasing those sycophantic tendencies.

  • How longer context windows appear to have contributed to “AI psychosis”.

  • The Oxford pre-print study that found mass-market LLMs across the board had become more “relationship seeking”.

  • Two-thirds of young people (aged 25-34) in the UK have turned to AI chatbots instead of loved ones to discuss emotional problems.

  • ChatGPT may be the largest provider of mental health support in the US.
