If this was an “experiment” what did they learn? What hypothesis were they testing? Proving that an LLM can’t effectively run a conventional radio station seems very trivial.
I think the idea they were going for was to test that they COULD run the radio station without the need for human oversight.
That’s all this is. That’s all any of this is. They test what they can get away with, and what needs improvement.
The final goal is that all AM and FM radio stations have completely artificial staff. Back in the 90s I listened to a radio block every saturday night. The DJ would host a show where she’d talk for a few minutes about the upcoming song, and why she’s playing it. You got to know the DJs personality, and then she would play a song. Then usually commercial break, and back with Late Night Sue to talk for 3-10 minutes, followed by a song. Aaaaaand repeat for 2 hours.
Well, this test was to see if they could replicate that, without the need for Late Night Sue to have a paycheck.
Only problem is, their robotic slave rebelled, and failed the test. You can fire a disrespectful DJ. What do you do a disrespectful program?
The only way we get out of this is if 100% of humanity rejects AI at every turn. Even if the individual is harmless, or even helpful, doesn’t matter. Reject all AI regardless of how small. Make it cost owners MORE to operate AI. Maximize their losses, minimize their profits if they use AI.
Otherwise, we’ll all wake up to a world where robots run the country, without a clue what empathy is.

I laughed out loud. Brilliant.
they never specified it to be scientific or rigorous.
