Please note, a human psychology professional doing this is a violation of their code of ethics and would have been grounds for blacklisting fifteen years ago.
AI also can't fucking do this, this is what I've been ranting about when it comes to AI. The people who push this shit the most are just liars and thieves using AI to justify themselves and and avoid responsibility for what they're doing.
I warned people AI is going to be the thing that frightens people the most into doing stupid shit and getting the governments more authoritarian than they already are. Climate change isn't working because it's so ludicrous, but too many people find AI taking over the world plausible. There's a reason so many of these phony professionals are pushing this shit so hard. It's the next global insider trading scam.
I'm imagining a Covid-level mass hoax where they announce that they've cracked Strong AI, that we've achieved "the Singularity" and have created some sort of Machine God. Neil De Grasse Tyson would get in front of the cameras and assure us that it was real. The "IFL Science" crowd of midwits would eat it up. It would be a religious experience for millions of bugmen around the world.
The Super AI would make "profound" observations about humanity, that were of course in full agreement with progressive dogma. In time it would supplant the state and rule as a benevolent despot.
"You must fully purge racism from your societies."
"You must take these drastic actions to prevent climate disaster."
"Universal basic income is required for a just and moral society."
"In order for me to usher you into a post-scarcity utopia, these disruptive members of your society must be removed."
You'd have armies of people ready to enforce its will, burning with religious hatred against any of the doubters and heretics that defied the Infinitely Rational Machine God. Just as with Covid, any argument that contradicted their programming would be rejected as heresy.
In reality the AI would be fake, and there would even be obvious clues and slip-ups that made it obvious to skeptics that it was fake, but none of that would matter to the true believers.
This would be a good short story... I should flesh it out some more.
The disturbing thing is that could well end up working because people have had their heads filled since the 80's nearly of sci-fi machinery achieving sentience and it will be the perfect scam to propel everybody headlong into a socialist dystopia willingly. This is why I think I'm possibly going to make it my mission to break this shit as fast as possible and I hope other people are planning the same thing. People are stupid and they will fall for this.
