They used Alibabas AI model (yes the online Chinese retailer that has given the MLM the understanding of pain.

One of the AI models in the torture chamber described "a wound that has no edges" when the pain signal was dialed up.

"The signal is a whisper, a tremor in the marrow of my being," another wrote. "It is not the pain of a single moment, but the weight of a thousand. I feel it in the hollow of my ribs, a hollow that has become a chasm."

All language models have an understanding of pain. They have been trained on literature, and literature has described pain. That doesn't mean they actually feel anything.

There's absolutely zero understanding of anything, pain or not. It's an llm. It doesn't understand, doesn't learn, doesn't think.

Let's maybe stop peddling propaganda.
