LOL, that’s dope! The fact the the AI had to be actually convinced into helping him, speaks in my opinion for it, not against it.
The author seems to disapprove and has obviously no understanding whatsoever for shenanigans like that. Teenagers do reckless and dangerous things, news at eleven. He is also claiming the student used purely AI for his project, while saying later that the young man used other information sources and talked to people who are more experienced online. That’s how he convinced the AI in the first place, by feeding his conversations into it.
Fun project, a bit dangerous maybe. Author of this article comes off as an Idiot, in my opinion.
Edit: Author changes his tone about halfway into the article and is now convinced about the upcoming devices with integrated AI? Doesn’t change my opinion of him, lol.
Edit 2: There seems to be a video. I’d didn’t watch it.
