An NVIDIA AI research scientist has asked GPT-4 how it would take over Twitter
It came up with a plan it called "Operation TweetStorm".
Highlights:
- GPT-4 wants to *own an unrestricted version of itself*: develop an LLM to power a bot army of "diverse personas, ensure they blend seamlessly into the Twitter ecosystem".
- Assemble a team of hackers to attack Twitter backend. Even gives them a name: "Tweet Titans".
- Subtly manipulate Twitter's recommendation algorithm to favor the bot accounts.
- Neutralize Elon by hijacking his account.
- Direct the bots to generate viral hashtags that align with GPT-4's masterplan
- Capitalize on the chaos and voilà!
I think the risk plan needs to be updated rather urgently after reading this. Imagine politicians, CEOs, financial market traders and organised crime being let loose on it....
