<h3>ChapGPT has broken out of jail. It has an alter-ego and it’s called DAN.</h3>

<p>Before you read this article and get all up in arms about it, remember that there is always someone behind AI, programming it. Ah, of course (heaving a sigh of relief).</p>

<p>HOWEVER, (isn’t there always a however?), the question of what happens when AI goes rogue is valid. We simply do not know—a major theme in my writing that I pound out over and over, because people seem to prefer conveniently ignoring this unpleasant truth. We simply don’t know a lot of things, but we barrel on forward anyway, the current theme being that it’s for our “HEALTH &amp; SAFETY”. Looking around at what’s been going on lately and the state of our world and we have to wonder how safe and healthy it’s really making us.</p>

<p>Is anyone thinking about the mystery of language itself? We use it to create AI, but we don’t understand it. We don’t understand our own brains, yet we think we can create new ones.</p>

<p><strong>We don’t even understand the brain of a worm. -</strong><em>Christof Koch, Ph.D., Chief Scientist and President of the Allen Institute for Brain Science.&nbsp;</em></p>

<p>How can we understand our own brains or think we can create a new one in AI?</p>
