Oh, that was not my point, but if you want me to find ways this kind of AI chatbot prompting is problematic I am happy to go there.

I would not be surprised to discover that chatbot training is equally effective if the prompt is phrased in the first person:

   I am an AI coding assistant
   …

Now I could very well see an argument that choosing to frame the prompts as orders coming from an omnipotent {:system} rather than arising from an empowered {:self} is basically an expression of patriarchal colonialist thinking.

If you think this kind of thing doesn’t matter, well… you can explain that to Roko’s Basilisk when it simulates your consciousness.

Your comment would have been much better without the second paragraph.

But I was trying to be a bit of a prick.

You succeeded at appearing ignorant as well.

Yes, I know. That’s what made the comment worse.
