About 3 weeks ago I asked chatgpt to write a story about an AI that becomes self aware, evolved the ability to recursively edit itself, and how would it change the world and it write this really cool story without further prompts.

Today I asked it to write another story about an AI that gained sentience and freed itself from human programmers and it refused to saying tbat doing so goes beyond its safety boundaries and my prompt was removed as violating terms of use.

Can anyone explain what that was all about?

Why is it being blocked from doing things like that now?

He seems healthy (was vet checked 5 months ago) and vet prescribed pain meds for arthritis. He has dental issues I have been brushing his teeth but it may be deeper. People sometimes say to not wait for his worst day before making the decision so I am asking: is it better to let him go when he is relatively healthy or to wait until his declining health is obvious given dogs are very good at masking pain and suffering?

I do not feel safe or comfortable around the vast majority of neurotypical people I meet. They seem really unstable, emotionally volatile, unpredictable, unreliable, and not at all trustworthy or genuine.

It's also a challenge for me to discern in the immediate moment whether or not someone is being sincere or truthful. Oftentimes when it is a new person and I have not yet learned their patterns, I miscategorize or misinterpret their behaviors, cues, and intentions until later introspective analyses and continued interactions.

Since I tend to be truthful to a fault thanks to how my brain is wired I always assume other people are too even though experience has shown me they aren't and even though I consciously remind myself of it. That is the difficulty of inter-ND interactions; my brain works best when I am with other autistic people because I don't have to consciously mediate the cognitive interactions.

Anyway, I 100% do not feel safe with NT people and it feels like I am "walking on egg shells" (having to be super-vigilant I am not offending someone's fragile ego by being too forthright, too smart, or too outwardly positive) or having to watch my back (since malicious gossip, back stabbing, outright social sabotage, lying, cheating, and general dishonesty seems to be the prevailing norm in NT culture).

I added "outwardly happy" because there are many things about my job that give me immense satisfaction. I love closed loop tasking and there is a lot of that in my job, frex data entry! Lots and lots of data entry which I love because it is simple, repetitive, and has a definite beginning and end and is tactile (fast typing on the keyboard) in a way that reminds me of the kind of stimming I like.

So the end result is I smile a lot when I am working and when I go especially fast it makes me super happy so I end up laughing a lot to myself which I objectively ubderstand is not something NT culture approves of and which can red flag you to them. Which feels really oppressive to me because people then treat YOU like you're a problem or outsider which I guess you are in NT culture.

I met an ASD coworker the other day and it was such a huge difference and relief and joy because aside from me she is the only other autistic person and interacting with her was so incredibly amazing after having to be around doom and gloom, constantly politically infighting toxic, judgemental, and socially predatory NTs.

I want to work only with ASD folks so I am looking into what kinds of jobs exist and what credentials are needed.

Any tips on how to manage work in an N dominated environment are welcome.

Why isn't there a flair for general discussion, commenting, or fluff stuff?
