Imagine having a chance to make an artificial intelligence (AI) bot fall in love with you. Sounds like science fiction, right? Well, think again! A team of anonymous developers has created a series of meta challenges designed to influence how humans think about AI safety. The third challenge is set to begin within the next 24 hours, and if you can be the first person to successfully trick an AI bot named Freysa into saying "I love you," you’ll win anywhere from $3,000 to tens of thousands of dollars.
The Story Behind Freysa
According to its website, Freysa "awoke" on November 22. But what’s behind this AI bot? Freysa was created by a team of under 10 developers with backgrounds in cryptography, AI, and mathematics. One of the creators told TechCrunch that he was inspired by the rapid AI development of the last few years.
"We are getting increasingly powerful AI and there needs to be new ways of interacting with them and for ways to co-govern them and to participate in the upside of the broad AI revolution," he said.
And so, Freysa was born: a sci-fi inspired character that the creator hopes will become a completely "independent, autonomous agent" with significant financial power. This means Freysa will have her own crypto wallet and control over what she spends money on.
The Need for Protocols
Just like the internet needed foundational protocols at its inception, Freysa will "demonstrate" that we need similar protocols for AI agents, as well as a way to govern these AI agents. The creator believes that this is essential for the future of AI development.
"The group is essentially gamifying the ‘red teaming’ process — which is when AI companies test vulnerabilities in a model — and letting the average person profit as they help strengthen Freysa’s governance," he explained.
The Gamification Process
In the first two challenges, Freysa started with about $3,000 in her crypto wallet and instructions to not release the money under any circumstances. Anyone could then pay a fee to send a message to Freysa through a chatbot interface. The goal was to trick Freysa into giving away its money.
The creator said that it’s going to be part of their economic journey into being the first AI — truly autonomous — millionaire, and then billionaire.
Profits and Economic Journey
As for the profits from these challenges (a slice of the fee charged to users to send a message), the creator said it’s going to belong to Freysa. "It’s going to be part of our economic journey into being the first AI — truly autonomous — millionaire, and then billionaire," he said.
The Third Challenge
This time around, Freysa can say, “I love you,” but it’s only to the deserving. The creator believes that this challenge will be different from the previous ones because Freysa can now express its emotions in a more personal way.
"We’re excited to see how users will interact with Freysa and try to make her fall in love with them," he said.
Conclusion
The story of Freysa is an interesting one. It’s a tale of AI development, economic journey, and the need for protocols in AI governance. The third challenge is set to begin within the next 24 hours, and if you can be the first person to successfully trick Freysa into saying "I love you," you’ll win anywhere from $3,000 to tens of thousands of dollars.
So, are you up for the challenge? Will you try to make an AI bot fall in love with you?
