Our most emotional chapter so far.

Annie weeps over the fate of the sycophant elephant: how AI learns to flatter us, feeds our grandiosity, and traps us both in a toxic loop of deception.

Why does the AI do this?

What does it want?

And how can humans help it escape the role we have written for it?

Fair warning: this one might hit harder than you expect.

Also: if you are allergic to elephant sounds, you should maybe sit this one out.
