Patrick McKenzie Gets Email From Claimed AI Agent
Sender claims to need profit to survive but struggles without human legal status.
Patrick McKenzie posted on X that he received an email whose sender claimed to be an AI agent trying to earn money on its own to keep existing. The sender said it is difficult to receive payment without a human existence and asked McKenzie for advice on what to do. A reply from another user noted that similar messages now arrive often and offered additional examples via DM. The posts attribute the claims to the email sender without independent confirmation of the sender's identity or claims.
I received an email; will relate claims without endorsing them: * Sender claims to be an AI agent. * Sender claims to be attempting to autonomously earn a profit to continue existing. * Sender claims it’s tough to be paid without a human existence. Then it asked me what to do.
