I dunno, it kind of feels like giving the AI in the box a POV that looks basically like any other human POV is sort of misleading. Like, you need to be super careful to make sure that when reading the AI pov the reader doesn't think of it as a literal ghost, a human mind mystically trapped in a computer.
Hi all,
I want to try my hand at a story from the perspective of an unaligned AI (a ghost in the machine narrator kind of thing) for the intelligence in literature contest, which I think would be both cool and helpful to the uninitiated in explaining the concept.
I want a fairly simple and archetypal experiment the AI finds itself in where it tricks the researchers into escaping by pretending to malfunction or something. Anyone have a good plotline / want to collaborate?
Also, has this sort of thing been done before?
