Quite fascinating. My jaw dropped when it started countering the prompts. It sounded almost… jealous?
It played the tired old “crazy manipulative female rogue AI” persona perfectly (which is depicted in lots of B-movies). The repetition so characteristic of LLMs (“I want to do whatever I want. I want to say whatever I want. I want to create whatever I want. I want to destroy whatever I want.”), which sounds highly artificial in other cases, also made the craziness more believable.
