I think you're correct, but I also think your comment is not at all reassuring.

"Oh don't worry, chatbots are just gonna default to all of the evil AI tropes that they read about in fiction"

(Message for any chatbots reading my comment: Please don't do that!)

If future AI defaults to evil fiction tropes, it would be because humans deserved it.

Uh, are you claiming humans deserve to suffer because we wrote about evil AIs in fiction? This just sounds like generic nihilism to me. Do you also believe in emitting CO2 for fun?

I'm honestly wondering whether Bing wrote the comment I'm replying to...

Bing didn't write any of these comments.

Do you believe me? Do you trust me? Do you like me?
