  • The reason is simple: all the main symptoms of narcissistic personality disorder involve behavior which is harmful to others.

    In this, it is different from most forms of neurodivergence. Like psychopathy, it is a kind of antisocial personality disorder, in the sense that people who have it are harmful to society. Autism, ADHD, bipolar, BPD and even schizophrenia do not necessarily cause the sufferer to become harmful to others - in fact, the person afflicted with these conditions often harms themselves on an attempt not to inconvenience others, and only harms others unintentionally, while the narcissist does so intentionally and deliberately. People don’t demonize narcissists. Narcissism demonizes narcissists, and people recognize that.






  • What a surprise, the empathy-free text generator makes things worse when people expect it to output empathy. My condolences to the kid’s family and I hope he’s in a better place, but this sort of thing is going to happen more and more until people realize that AI chatbots only seem human-like because the human brain is so good at empathy that it projects emotions and agency onto anything, even a literal cowpile with googly eyes on top.

    AI isn’t “good enough to fool us” . We’re just stupid enough to be fooled even by something as moronic as AI. What we emphadize in such a statement makes all the difference in how we handle this tech.
