My theory about what happened next — which is supported by conversations I’ve had with researchers in artificial intelligence, some of whom worked on Bing — is that many of the stories about my experience with Sydney were scraped from the web and fed into other A.I. systems.

These systems, then, learned to associate my name with the demise of a prominent chatbot. In other words, they saw me as a threat.

LLMs predict text, they don't have feelings or awareness. Even if a researcher did say that I call to attention the Google chatbot programmer who thought an LLM became sentient because it said so when generating text.

Guys, my paper is sentient, it says so.

If the AI says he's disonhest and sensational that's because enough people on the internet have said so that the AI considers it to be true.
