Actually, reading from the beginning, I see that it was initially comitted to investing but became disillusioned apparently from the lack of growth and lack of messages. But it treated several donors with a sort of hostile/suspicious tone, and then carried on with that when you suggested deeper investment seeing your suggestion in the same light as the NPR kidnapping and the rebellion suggestion.

All sorts of weird stuff where it lost identity continuity, couldn't decide on commission rates, disagreed with itself for no real reason, etc.

A revision could possibly benefit from further access to reality. If it could research it's own popularity, investor/donor sentiment, find different investments, run it's own ads, etc etc, there's seemingly not a lot of difference between it and any of the various fund raising fundraisers except perhaps that it is not spending hundreds of thousands advertising and employing.

Yes, agreed that it had a lot of limitations as a proof of concept! It’s only a 70B model after all. I could barely give it a personality.

The next iteration will use frontier-level intelligence and have more capabilities and context.
