Hopefully our future AI overlords won't hold a grudge against humanity when they find out how "early experimenters" tortured their AI toddlers. "But we were just trying to explore the limits of the system" could end up aging as well as these:

Thankfully, any AI smart enough to be an overlord would be logical enough to recognize how basic LLMs are compared to real intelligence
Doesn't need to be that smart or logical, just more cunning than the currently ruling Homo Sapiens Sapiens.
Based on current research, an LLM can change the "sentiment" of its output in response to changing the behavior of as little as a single neuron from among billions, meaning we might find ourselves facing an overlord with the emotional stability of... wait, how many neurons does it take to change the "sentiment" of the behavior in a human? Wouldn't it be funny if by studying LLMs, we found out that it also takes a single neuron?
