AIs feel? Maybe language structure in trading documents that ultimately led to fraud. If the latter is the case maybe AIs should not be trained on “negative outcomes.” I do not think AIs have emotions or are pressured by language either written or physical, just tokens.

Of course it is just tokens, but the result is the same.

If, in the amount of data they ingested, there was a clear pattern of responding in an hasty and carefree way to frenetic questions, LLMs will try more hasty and carefree solutions to a frenetic prompt.

You can decide whether you can say that they "feel" the urgency or not, but the outcome is very much the same

I was unclear. I should have said the AI also "detects" it, and as a thing it can detect, it can act on that detection.

Whether it is simulating emotion or feeling it isn't relevant in this case, because the problem is that it affects the output.
