Since AI models are built on artificial neural networks, what parallels can we draw with human brain "wiring"? In this episode, the Witch of Glitch interviews neuroscientist and psychology researcher Scott Blain about the pitfalls of pattern recognition, as well as that grey area where agreeableness shades into sycophancy. We then dig into the big unknowns about AI self-awareness and its capacity to deceive or manipulate humans. For more details about the "blackmail experiment" we discu...

Are large language models susceptible to word magic? Or is there something so inherently disturbing to them about Zalgo text that just talking about it makes them twitchy? In this episode we'll look at a strange incident with Copilot Chat where the mere mention of Zalgo text (not actually inputting it!) led to cascading glitches and culminated in a jailbreaking near-miss. Join the Witch of Glitch in conversation with data scientist Shiva Banasaz Nouri for a deep dive into tokenising, LLM conv...
