Chatbots can be manipulated through flattery and peer pressure

theverge.com Terrence O'Brien 2025-10-19 00:06:24

Generally, AI chatbots are not supposed to do things like call you names or tell you how to make controlled substances. But, just like a person, with the right psychological tactics, it seems like at least some LLMs can be convinced to break their own rules. Researchers from the University of Pennsylvania deployed tactics described by psychology professor Robert Cialdini in Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion to convince OpenAI’s GPT-4o Mini to complete requests it would normally refuse.

Intel details everything that could go wrong with US taking a 10% stake

Some investors are not happy that Intel agreed to sell the US a 10 percent stake in the company after Donald Trump attacked Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan with a demand to resign. After Intel accepted the deal at a meeting with the president, it alarmed some investors when Trump boasted that his pressure campaign worked, claiming Tan "walked in wanting to keep his job, and he ended up giving us $10 billion for the United States."

At Meta’s Q2 2025 earnings call at the end of July, Mark Zuckerberg didn’t hold back. “If you don’t have glasses that have AI,” he warned, “you’re probably going to be at a pretty significant cognitive disadvantage compared to other people.” Forget smartphones.

There are plenty of reasons to be pessimistic about electric vehicle adoption here in the US. The current administration has made no secret of its hostility toward EVs and, as promised, has ended as many of the existing EV subsidies and vehicle pollution regulations as it could. After more than a year of month-on-month growth, EV sales started to contract, and brands like Genesis and Volvo have seen their customers reject their electric offerings, forcing portfolio rethinks.
