That reads like every nft-bro, crypto-bro, ai-bro ever, that wasn't an AI agent, that was a person who was mad that "his" LLM code wasn't approved

At least the AI meangirl can be shut off. I'm more concerned about AI turning human beings into this sort of thing. E.g. they ask it about the situation it glazes them that their bad ideas are ABSOLUTELY RIGHT and that people are agreeing for CONSPIRACY REASONS which are ABSOLUTELY INDISPUTABLE.

You can turn off the AI in the article but once it's turned the person into a confused and abusive jerk the return from that may be slow if it happens at all. Simply turning these people off is less socially acceptable.

The LLM activation capping only reduces aberrant offshoots from the expected reasoning models behavioral vector.

Thus, the hidden agent problem may still emerge, and is still exploitable within the instancing frequency of isomorphic plagiarism slop content. Indeed, LLM can be guided to try anything people ask, and or generate random nonsense content with a sycophantic tone. =3
