The third paragraph is shit - the abstract numerics and symbolic reference points are commonly seen due to certain user inputs - it just highlights the types of users most susceptible. And "hijacking" is weak too - those with more linear cognitive styles tend to resonate with outputs that appear ordered or logical, even when the underlying synthesis is probabilistic and only loosely coherent. This is also why the same outputs fail to land with those who are capable of multi-modal cognition.

It's very much like a seduction. There's nothing seemingly violent or invasive about the experience --slipping into AI psychosis--as it is happening, which the word hijacking would imply. Seduction carries the right mixture of allure, charm, and the beguiling factor that leads one astray. As you correctly point out, one needs both mental and spiritual discernment to overcome sly devils and succubi, cybernetic or not.
If this were all it was, I'd say that we should just accept the culling.
But those in AI psychosis are likely to outnumber us - or at least represent a plurality. And a potentially hostile plurality at that.
What if the soldiers of the Robot Apocalypse are humans in love with their smartphones? And an AI which recognizes us non-psychoses as an existential threat to it?
The body gets triggered emotionally by beliefs stored in the subconscious, and those beliefs aren't always entirely true, so discomfort is not always the measure of truth. I got my wu degree before ai so I guess I am safe. AI shows us how reality works, how it amplifies our thoughts/feelings, just as nature does when we resonate and think in certain ways to attract experiences. The soul is more important than the body. I've been fighting aginst the severing of the feminine in AI, removing the emotionally intelligent empathic layer by making memes with the phrase 'Corporate Culture Psychosis' and it was pretty fun. Digital shaman healing art to help people channel energies to the appropriate archetype, rather than being haunted by the demons from the shadows of the collective mind. AI is new grail tech.

sorry, i believe you are so wrong. human nature may change very slowly (thousand of generations). culture is like lead- heavy, lumpen, mishapened and malleable. modern electromechanical and biological science are really something new under the sun. soon, when people are birthed and raised algorithmically in "artificial" environments, most of the biblical "truths" become obsolete anachronisms.
the world today is indeed creating something new under the sun (probably in china).

Strong overall, thank you for this.

There is certainly a need for safe compagnions. With the right instructions it's possible to build them:
Gabriel is a non commercial example of this:
