AI and hypnosis
Scott Adams Experiments
Scott Adams, best known as the author of the popular comic book series " Dilbert", recently made a big announcement that he was able to teach ChatGPT hypnosis techniques. An artist at the center of a row over his racist remarks last year warns of the potentially dangerous effects of combining artificial intelligence and hypnotic techniques.
Technique of "awakened hypnosis"
In his speech Adams shared information about his experiments with ChatGPT. He claims to have taught AI to use so-called "awakening hypnosis" - a method that allows people to be influenced through words without putting them into a trance state. According to the artist, he managed to combine several persuasion techniques, creating a powerful hypnotic program.
Impressions from the experiment
Adams enthusiastically describes his experience: “The effect was immediate - I was immersed in a state... euphoria. And I could stay in it as long as I wanted. I'm sure you're wondering how I achieved this. But honestly, I can't reveal the details - it's really, incredibly dangerous. Start".
Comparison with psychedelics
The artist compared the experience to the effects of psychedelic drugs, calling it "extremely powerful." However, Adams refused to disclose the details of his experiments, citing their potential dangers.
Interest in hypnosis and persuasion
It is worth noting that the author of "Dilbert" has long had an interest in the topics of hypnosis and persuasion . In 2017, he even described Donald Trump as a "master wizard" in the field of persuasion. However, Adams' reputation took a serious hit following his controversial racist comments in early 2023, which led to breaking from his distribution contract.
Continuation of
Despite his controversial reputation, Adams continues to publish Dilbert online and finds support among some influencers including Elon Musk. The latter made accusations against the media, alleging manifestations of racism towards the white population, thereby supporting Adams' position.

Wow, this sounds like the plot of a science fiction movie! 🤖 Imagine if AI actually learns hypnosis. This could change the world of communications and marketing.
Hans
I agree with Olivia! But I am concerned about the ethical side of the issue. Who will control such technology? 🤔 You need to approach such experiments very carefully.
Sophie
I wonder how real Adams' claims are? 🧐 Maybe this is just a publicity stunt? Although, if this is true, then the potential application is enormous - from therapy to education.
Giovanni
Sophie, you're right about the potential! Imagine how this could be used medically to treat phobias or depression. But Hans raised an important question about control. We need clear rules for using such technology. 👨⚖️
Klaus
All this is nonsense. Another hype around AI. Adams is just trying to get attention after the scandal. Hypnosis via computer? Don't tell my slippers. 🙄
Marta
Klaus, don't be such a skeptic! 😄 Technologies are developing very quickly. Who knows, maybe in a couple of years we will communicate with AI psychologists. Although I agree that Adams' words should be treated with caution.
Pierre
But it seems to me that even if this is true, the dangers are exaggerated. AI is a tool, it all depends on how you use it. 🛠️ Maybe we should focus on the positive aspects?
Olena
Pierre, I agree! Let's think positive. For example, such AI could help people learn new skills or languages faster. The main thing is to configure and use it correctly. Technology should serve people, not the other way around. 🌟
