AI Interaction Already Shapes Behavior
- People are already interacting with AI bots deeply and sometimes unhealthily, creating dependence and social effects.
- Christian Peters warns social immunity requires treating AI skeptically like people to avoid manipulation.
Use Human Skepticism With AI
- Treat AI interactions with the same skeptical social habits you use with people to maintain 'social immunity.'
- Apply the critical categories you use for human interactions to reduce undue influence from bots.
Algorithms Amplify UAP Narratives
- Algorithms and platform capitalism will push AI to optimize economic efficiency and monetize attention.
- Peters links these forces to how UAP narratives can be amplified or shaped by social platforms' algorithms.
