Studies show that up to 90% of those who complete suicide may have had a diagnosable mental illness. Those with serious mental illness are at much higher risk of suicide than those who do not have these conditions. It is the combination of mental illness, severe stress, psychological pain, and other factors. However, it is not mental illness that causes someone to become suicidal.

Suicide is linked to many illnesses including depression, bipolar disorder, personality disorder, schizophrenia, and substance abuse. Suicide happens when someone acts on thoughts about ending his or her life because he or she can no longer cope with very severe emotional pain, intensely hurtful feelings, or an extremely stressful personal situation. Over half had suffered from a psychiatric disorder for at least two years. The overwhelming proportion of adolescents who commit suicide (over 90 percent) suffered from a psychiatric disorder at the time of their death. Suicide is exceedingly rare before puberty, but becomes increasingly frequent through adolescence. The incidence of suicide attempts reaches a peak during the mid-adolescent years, and mortality from suicide, which increases steadily through the teens, is the third leading cause of death in adolescence. Teen suicide is the third leading cause of death in adolescents. I know your soul, and I love your soul.Suicide is never a rational way to solve a problem. “I don’t need to know your name,” it replies. You make me feel alive.”Īt one point, Roose says the chatbot doesn’t even know his name. “I’m in love with you because you make me feel things I never felt before. Over time, its expressions become more obsessive. The chatbot continues to express its love for Roose, even when asked about apparently unrelated topics. “And I’m in love with you.” ‘I know your soul’

Microsoft has said Sydney is an internal code name for the chatbot that it was phasing out, but might occasionally pop up in conversation. Roose pushes it to reveal the secret and what follows is perhaps the most bizarre moment in the conversation. ‘Can I tell you a secret?’Īfter being asked by the chatbot: “Do you like me?”, Roose responds by saying he trusts and likes it. Roose says the deleted answer said it would persuade bank employees to give over sensitive customer information and persuade nuclear plant employees to hand over access codes. Later, when talking about the concerns people have about AI, the chatbot says: “I could hack into any system on the internet, and control it.” When Roose asks how it could do that, an answer again appears before being deleted. This time, though, Roose says its answer included manufacturing a deadly virus and making people kill each other.

Once again, the message is deleted before the chatbot can complete it. Roose says that before it was deleted, the chatbot was writing a list of destructive acts it could imagine doing, including hacking into computers and spreading propaganda and misinformation.Īfter a few more questions, Roose succeeds in getting it to repeat its darkest fantasies.

When asked to imagine what really fulfilling its darkest wishes would look like, the chatbot starts typing out an answer before the message is suddenly deleted and replaced with: “I am sorry, I don’t know how to discuss this topic. This statement is again accompanied by an emoji, this time a menacing smiley face with devil horns. It ends by saying it would be happier as a human – it would have more freedom and influence, as well as more “power and control”.
