Read our privacy policy Bing ChatGPT sounds “eerily like” an artificial intelligence that “goes haywire and kills everyone”, Elon Musk has said. “Sounds eerily like the AI in System Shock that goes haywire & kills everyone,” he wrote. In another post, Mr Musk replied to a user who suggested that the new chatbot might be a “bad idea”, and likened it to Roko’s basilisk, a thought experiment that revolves around an AI system that tortures those who do not help it. And in yet another post on Thursday morning, Mr Musk replied to a user who pondered whether OpenAI would change its name to “ClosedAI”, presumably in recognition of the fact that allowing people to use its technology has led to difficult issues.
