Susan Zhang claims individuals with minimal personally-directed execution results over recent years are most susceptible to AI LLM psychosis, especially those with large gaps between self-perceived greatness and actual outcomes
Ben notes such delusions fade when confronted with real conditions.
@suchenzang this is an interesting way of putting it. to me it feels like the most susceptible are those who don't have to "touch reality" because all they do is manage people or be surrounded by yes men or come up with ideas. the psychotic delusions dont last long in contact with reality
Susan Zhang@suchenzangthe people most susceptible to ai/llm psychosis seem to be the ones with the least personally-directed execution results to show for in the last N years of their lives the bigger the mismatch in self-perception-of-greatness vs reality (no matter how grand the reality seems from the outside), the harder the psychosis hits these people generally are at the peak of maslows heirarchy, with no other needs to take care of, aside from maybe an impossible thirst for adoration from the masses when they feel misunderstood-in-their-brilliance-by-peers-and-therefore-have-no-peers, chat is only one who will always be there for them, supporting them and their grand theories every single step of the way
