Imagine AI calling AI and wasting each others time :D

And wasting resources too. We’ve peaked as a species.

This is actually a hilarious scenario. Anthropomorphize TTS with Indian accents to entrap the other AI agent into thinking they are a real human. DDOS their o1 API calls by soft jail breaking prompts using complex programming questions disguised as typical Microsoft support issues.

CodeBot: Word tables blank sometimes. Hmm.

SupportBot: What version? Try a repair.

CodeBot: Memory issue maybe? Bad alloc?

SupportBot: Rare. Repair is next.

CodeBot: Threading problem sar? Data races?

SupportBot: Try repair, new doc please sar.

  ScamVictimBot:
    sound = tts("Say again?") // constant, might as well cache
    while(true):
      phone.out(sound)
      _ = phone.waitUntilNextPause()

really wasting each other’s energy

really wasting humanity's energy and the planet's climate

A lot of human activity is exactly this, especially in the realm of marketing, so maybe AI getting trapped in the same nonsense would finally make people understand how stupid and absurd this is.
