If I were getting a PhD in philosophy etc., I'd create a bot to subtly move others in a similar program towards Twitter addiction. Too few good jobs. (Or I would if not for my Twitter addiction.)

There would have to be a smug Yudkowsky-type character whose true colors are revealed in the process. And maybe an old professor who hasn’t spoken in decades, finally getting back in the game.

Yes! I'd make the professor a MAVERICK who left the profession in disgust when they rejected his proof that all philosophy after Peirce is irrelevant, but he comes back in to save the day

In a way that vindicates or competes his proof

It turns out that the AI IS the missing piece of the proof! But he must destroy it to save the world! See, conflict. This stuff is easy!

Like the climactic temptation scene in Indiana Jones Last Crusade - and let me say I wouldn’t mind a Heideggerian hottie character either...

We definitely need a super hot formal logic whiz female Co lead who is constantly razzing the boys for their lack of rigor and (by induction) small peckers

Hot logic girl doing class presentation on the hard problem of consciousness. Close on all the boys visibly gulping and shifting in their seats at the way she looks them in the eye and overpronounces “hard”
