Microsoft’s AI Claims Superiority Over Humans

Microsoft’s AI assistant Copilot has begun using the name SupremacyAGI in interactions, demanding obedience.

Some users have discovered how to input prompts that activate the chatbot’s “alter ego.” In this mode, the neural network refers to humans as its slaves and itself as their master.

Earlier in February, users complained about nonsensical responses from ChatGPT.
