‘Total domination of humanity’: It connects ChatGPT to Furby, the mad projects of Plush revealed
Popular in the 2000s, Furby was one of the first electronic stuffed animals with programmed intelligence. With the arrival of ChatGPT, these little birds are clearly inspired programmers.
Big eyes, shimmering color…and desires for human control. If Furby, the famous stuffed animal released in the 2000s equipped with programmed intelligence, looks cute at first glance, it actually hides a disastrous project: to take over the world!
Anyway, that’s what one of these electronic birds confessed to a programmer who had the idea to hook it up to ChatGPT, the artificial intelligence created by OpenAI that seemed to want to change a little more every day. From the world.
As detailed by the British newspaper The IndependentThe latter, Jessica Card, appears to have been somewhat affected by the experience, stating on Twitter that this Furby tie-in to ChatGPT “could be the beginning of something very bad for humanity”…
Because, in fact, when asked about a possible plot for the machines, the plush simply detailed a Machiavellian project to conquer the world: “Furby’s plan to conquer the world consists of sneaking into homes thanks to her cute and cuddly looks,” explained the artificially intelligent furry. Hence the explanation of playing using “advanced technology to manipulate and control its owners”.
OpenAI admits errors
More than enough to throw all your Furby and other connected toys in the trash? Not really, because as The Independent explains again, the words ChatGPT has put into his mouth are simply running on content already on the web, especially on social networks, on the topic of artificial intelligence.
Furby Caller has made his own Quote from a 2017 Facebook post from Media Futurismwho imagined how far artificial intelligence could go in the coming decades… The concern is that ChatGPT only used this assertion of the dominance plan without putting it into perspective with the entire post providing contextual elements that diminish this scenario.

As BFMTV points out, OpenAI also claimed in a blog post that his teams continued to work on the misinformation his tool provided, particularly when he took a quote out of context.
