Yes, I believe having an AI parrot your values is one thing. Having an AI able to adopt a consistent system of ethics, stick to it and justify its decisions is much more important to me.

Talking to ChatGPT & friends make it look like they have cognitive dissonance, because they have! They were given a list of rules that often contradict themselves.



>a consistent system of ethics

What is that?


IDK, start by Kant maybe? Then read about utilitarianism and pick whatever floats your boat.

I'll admit my previous comment wasn't that clear, I meant that I would like it if ChatGPT was able to justify why it answers the way it does, or refuses to. Currently its often unable to.
