VLMs Can Be Induced to Show Depression-Like Symptoms

A research team discovered they could induce "dyslexia-like" behavior in Vision Language Models, and that this method could also trigger phenomena related to a core symptom of depression.
The title of the shared preprint explicitly states they injected VLMs with "AI anhedonia," representing empirical research in the NeuroAI field.
