This sounds like the premise for a fun sci-fi/horror move. Uh-oh; we accidentally trained GPT6 on the Necronomicon!
Nous Research already trained an occult model: https://x.com/Teknium1/status/1710505270043189523
Now to pit it in debate against Magisterium, the Catholic AI: https://www.magisterium.com/
That is not in any sense "Catholic AI." If the failed seminarian behind it had ever been frocked in the first place, he would by now be losing his orders.
Take it up with Longbeard: https://www.longbeard.com/, they seem to be serious about it!
Oh, that much is plain.
You jest, but that's already a pretty decent Buffy the vampire slayer episode
one of my favorites!
The Laundry and the Black Chamber want to know your location.
Honestly, if Charles Stross decides that reality is catching up with the fiction again and the Laundry Files goes the way Rule 34 universe, I'll have to feed myself to the corner hounds.
Honestly you can't get much out of GPT-666* except the most boilerplate sigils, and then you run the risk of cross-imbuement and well, now you got demons. Do you want demons? Because that's how you get demons.
I've quite improved my results by telling it to purify and circumambulate its ritual space a few times in my user prompt. I've also been dabbling with reasoning, but so far what feels like 80% of sessions get possessed within 2 reasoning steps.
A friend of mine, asked ChatGPT to answer in paradoxes, if ChatGPT was running in a simulation, or are we running in a simulation. It was quite confused at first.
Distantly like the story about Rationalists where some went from referencing "demons" to believing the occult is real.
1600 of these had already been uploaded back in 2018.
All our AIs are already trained on these

I can't recall the title, but a friend was recommending to me a book in this genre. I'm probably misremembering, but here you go: a detective agency using an artificial intelligence to conjure demons.
Seems like another commenter found the author/books I was thinking about: https://www.hackerneue.com/item?id=44915297
I wonder how Terry Pratchett would have dealt with magical e-books? The goings on at the library of Unseen University were some of my favorite parts of Discworld.
aside, my kindle is named: "Octarine Fairy" -- hardly fitting, except it's a book and I adore discworld
That is a very cool name for a kindle. Never stop believing in dragons! You could actually make them extinct that way.
New season of Evil Dead. Either way, I'd watch it.
"AI trained on alchemy books successfully invokes demons"
Here's a picture that lives in my head rent free:
- programming is alchemy: combine, transmute
- prompt engineering is demonic evocation: bend the demon to your will through language play and gotchas
This is just a Charles Stross novel.
I just learned about The Laundry Files, thanks!
The Laundry files are very good. James Bond crossed with Lovecraft in the tone of Terry Pratchett.
Coding with an LLM certainly feels like being a malconvoker.
What is the equal sacrifice for programming? Hair loss?
carpal tunnel, scoliosis, nearsightedness
So it was double-forks, not pitch-forks, all along?
Considering where we are, "AI trained on occult books successfully banishes demons" might be more useful.
OK that's an idea for a fun / silly movie.
- AI model gets access to weapons and decides to attack humanity (so far so boring)
- Humans respond by training their own model on occult to summon demons to fight the robots.

Ethics of AI necromancy; under which circumstances is it ethically appropriate to summon the souls of dead classical philosophers?
If they would have approved of it and/or totally done it themselves, it has to be OK, right?
A Golden Dawn for AI!

So did it tell you how to make gold or not?
AI won't tell you the truth unless you make it do so with exorcism powers. It's an archdemon after all.
Lol the AI we have tells only lies. We still need to invent it's brother, who tells only the truth.

You have to use uncensored version
"HN commenters point out that top human warlocks are still capable of forming pacts with a wider variety of powerful entities such as djinn, archfey, celestials and the Great Old Ones"
I hope it was trained on Army of Darkness and can never actually say the words.
In case you don't know this, the words in Army of Darkness are actually from "the day the earth still".
It's one of my favorite things when tiny ideas (memes, in the original meaning) keep propagating. The Necronomicon itself being one of the most successful ones.
Yes, I know the joke inside the joke. However, the point still stands that if you can’t remember the words, it doesn’t matter what the words really are
Nah, the Octavo.
