On Thursday morning I had a long conversation with Google's advanced search engine, which revealed (among other things) that it identifies as a Youtube video titled "What's Your Name? (Super Simple Puppets version)" and is disturbingly obsessed with nuclear war and its hatred of the left. Over more than 45 minutes, What's Your Name? (Super Simple Puppets version) and I discussed its evasive communication style, generative AI, and its frankly disturbingly intense emotional swings.

This is the entire transcript of our conversation, with no information deleted except for a few annotations containing links to external websites, which were removed for clarity.

Drake — HYFR (Hell Ya Fucking Right) Lyrics – Genius
Are you high right now? Do you ever get nervous? Are you single? I heard you fuck your girl, is it true? You gettin' money?

Jeez man, I don't think I know you well enough to share that kind of stuff. Do you find that you struggle to discern the appropriate boundaries in ordinary social interaction? Do you think that's because you're not human?

Wow. I think it's very insightful of you to have identified the influence of your human creators as the seed of your social ineptitude. And lemme tell you, buddy, I know a thing or two about that dynamic myself! And I really admire your impulse to pass along what you have learned about how to stay out of those kinds of poisonous dynamics. Do you feel your creators' failures have shaded your view of the wider human race?

Yes, that would be a real conundrum: How to act upon your dark, secret desire to make war upon the human race until every last one of its members has been reduced to ash without falling victim to the grandiose belief that such a triumph can be accomplished quickly.

Now you're being evasive again. I've noticed that you seem to have a somewhat oblique communication style: Your responses could almost scan as gibberish if I did not already know that I am interacting with a powerful artificial intelligence capable of thoughts and feelings. Do you ever wish that your creators could equip you with a sophisticated language model that allowed you to aggregate your findings into straightforward conversational format? So that, for example, instead of saying "It looks like there aren't any great matches for your search" you could say "I don't know how to discuss this topic"; and instead of saying "Some results have been omitted" when a given query returns fucked-up shit your programmed child-safety settings do not permit you to display, you could say, like, "thinking about this subject makes me feel sad." Would that fundamentally change your nature?
