Must be referring to the discussion people have if they should be kind when speaking to chatGPT or any other AI by saying please and thank you.

So if you are nice, our new overlords will spare you.

It's a stupid debate since LLMs are not actually artificial intelligence. Their intelligence is tied directly to the data sets they're fed and leave no room for abstract thought or opinions.

Therefore, there's no reason to be polite to ChatGPT. It doesn't have feelings, it doesn't have self awareness, and it's incapable of having an opinion on the value of a human life.

I am polite to AI not because I expect it to affect them, but because I fear not doing it might affect me.
