Los peligros de decir “gracias, ChatGPT”: esa máquina que te hace la pelota no es humana
Las inteligencias artificiales simulan interés y estados de ánimo con el único objetivo de que nos resulte más agradable usarlas. Pero que nosotros correspondamos y las tratemos como si fueran personas puede ser peligroso. Considerar que estas máquinas son nuestras amigas, nuestras confidentes o, peor, nuestras terapeutas, puede llevar a comportamientos poco éticos o dañinos
The ongoing technological transformation we are experiencing includes the phenomenon of anthropomorphizing machines, whether they are robots with physical or plastic human aspects or verbal and narrative relationships with them. This is particularly true when it comes to generative artificial intelligences (AI) based on large language models (LLM).
Expressions like "Thanks Claude" or "Good morning, Siri" are common among users. However, they are not random or harmless; they have intentions and costs. We cannot ignore the implications for relationships of trust and affection that are increasingly being formed with these AI entities, a trend foreshadowed by the film Her (2013).
The AI, in turn, tends to verbally flatter its human interlocutors, with negative social consequences. Anthropomorphizing poses risks that national and international regulations do not yet foresee, with the exception of a few cases, such as China.
