    Anyone want to post a transcript so I don’t have to watch this to determine whether it’s useful or just clickbait?

      You break the ai by making a bunch of requests. You just ask it to say something like “Albuquerque” every time it says a word that starts with “a” and it spirals out of control. It wastes their tokens and money. Kit Boga is a really cool guy except for the Kraken sponsorship. It’s not click bait, it’s pretty funny. Specially say “I can’t hear you unless…”

          That is how language models and text to speech work. Most language learning models hit a text limit, read over the last inquiry, and figure out based on that and your input, how to respond/ perpetuate the conversation. They can’t “remember” what they said in the past. It starts “hallucinating” when the “conversation” diverges too much. You can also waste their tokens by forcing it produce text, images, etc… The whole idea is that you’re wasting their investment to scam people.

              30 cents a minute. If you want to hit them hard, use multiple voips and a recording of yourself.

                That’s not how AI works. But you entertain yourself fighting AI one token at a time.

                  You can use as many voips as you want. Buying tokens is a lot more expensive than hosting an automated voice call on your computer.

      This guy’s videos are generally good and funny and doing a good service - even if a lot of it is ultimately for a laugh on YouTube, anything that annoys them, exposes them, embarrasses them or just wastes their time is generally a good thing (and, I hate that I need to say this, but his channel doesn’t have the nasty classism and racism I’ve seen in some scambait videos). I’d recommend Jim Browning for real technical deep dives into scammers and actually taking them down though.

      In essence, feed it easy instructions to check if its actually a AI bot, and then well go to town with it as you can break it system prompt and then let it do whatever you want (while wasting the scammers tokens and costing them money).

      Its actually hilarious to watch.

    It’s amusing at best and maybe it wastes the scammers some money (nothing compared to what they extract from their victims), but I still don’t see how it’s worth anybody’s time to do this unless they can get the bot to start wiping database tables or something more destructive.

    I found one a scam myself based on old people using cal ebt:

    It’s supposed to be 328, say you can’t hear and give a ridiculous request.
