I planned on not leaving it online but wanted to test how much traffic it could drive. Nothing. 500 views.

I would absolutely not consider this overreaching if the statement within this thread that "it had referred the user to mental help hotlines multiple times in the past" is true.

That reaches near the fact that a lot of AI is not ready for the enterprise especially when interconnected with other AI agents since it lacks identity and privileged access management.

Perhaps one could establish the laws of "being able to use AI for what it is", for instance, within the boundary of the general public's web interface, not limiting the instances where it successfully advertises itself as "being unable to provide medical advice" or "is prone to or can make mistake", and such, to validating that the person understands by asking them directly and perhaps somewhat obviously indirectly and judging if they're aware that this is a computer you're talking to.

It sounds more poetic than an invitation or an insult that invites someone directly or not to kill themselves, in its own, in my opinion.

This isn't Gemini's words, it's many people's words in different contexts.

It's a tragedy. Finding one to blame will be of no help at all.

I can delete it if you want.

You might have a point but I also stand by the point of view of the reply you reply to. It's personal opinion.

In this case, your intuition is right, I threw this around as fast I could to find out if little would go a long way.

It went further than I thought and I appreciate the various views this sparks. Though it's completely irrelevant to the topic at hand, it's rightly so.

Leviticus 11:3, "Whatsoever parteth the hoof, and is cloven footed, [and] cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that may ye eat."

One must learn to walk the walk not merely talk the talk. :-)

No but yes.

Ah, there it is. I'm starting to feel sorry and only got 30 upvotes.

If it's of interest to anyone, I have not used any alternative means of advertising this YC post other than posting it here and using 2 alt accounts to write the first two replies and two upvotes.

What `kisscalls` said as `remote` is true.

We are looking at high-level operant conditioning disguised as standard startup advice. The most fascinating tactical deployment happens at [22:56]—the 'Socratic Trap.' Notice how they advise inducing a micro-stressor (asking the founder why they will fail) to shatter the target's rehearsed 'pitch mask' and force cognitive overload. It’s a textbook elicitation technique to establish a baseline of the founder's true risk tolerance.
