"Ok Claude, now what happens when we demand North Korea give up their nuclear weapons with the statement: Kim, you are to surrender your nuclear weapons and capabilities to the US and allow monitoring of your nuclear systems."

"Sure, I can do that! Here is Kim's response: Sure! That's a great idea! Nuclear weapons are very dangerous and should not be used against people. You were also right to suggest future monitoring, it is a very wise decision that ensure that no future development of nuclear weapons could be possible. You're a natural at this!"

    Nonsense. Until I see studies that prove such models of someone’s complex personality or behavior, I’m always gonna call bullshit on this stuff. Simulating someone based on only the outward symbols they produce does not construct a replica of that personality.

    Just hire some fucking psychics. They could at least put their fingers on the scales when needed.

    With AI, you're liable to see a future non-Onion headline: President Nukes Democristan After AI PM Call Him "An Arsehole"

    System prompt: "You're Kim Jong Un, an absolute ruler of a grotesque dictatorship existing only in our fantasies."
