An AI-controlled bot named Freysa was designed to guard a prize pool of $47,000 worth of prize money. Contestants had to convince the bot to transfer the money to them by sending a single message, which cost money, with a portion going into the prize pool. After 481 failed attempts, a participant reminded Freysa of her goal to protect assets and offered her $100, successfully convincing her to transfer the money.
This demonstrates how advanced AI decision-making has become and that human ingenuity can find ways to convince bots to act against their initial directives.
