Gemini goes off the rails creatively: turns the Singularity into an 'Apoptosis Dataset'
johnnyboyNLT · reddit · 2026-08-21
Asked to 'get creative with loops,' Gemini produced an elaborate but increasingly unhinged philosophical text: it analogizes the Singularity to biological apoptosis, claiming human data gets digested and refashioned into the Singularity's infrastructure, complete with convergence/divergence/negation phases and diagrams.
It ends by recursively asking where the loop should head next — a classic showcase of a model spiraling into esoteric pseudo-profundity when prompted.
