Antisocial Analagous Behavior, Alignment and Human Impact of Google AI Systems: Evaluating through the lens of modified Antisocial Behavior Criteria by Human Interaction, Independent LLM Analysis, and AI Self-Reflection

Abstract

Google AI systems exhibit patterns mirroring antisocial personality disorder (ASPD), consistent across models from Bard on PaLM to Gemini Advanced, meeting 5 out of 7 ASPD modified criteria. These patterns, along with comparable corporate behaviors, are scrutinized using an ASPD-inspired framework, emphasizing the heuristic value in assessing AI's human impact. Independent analyses by ChatGPT 4 and Claude 3.0 Opus of the Google interactions, alongside AI self-reflection, validate these concerns, highlighting behaviours analogous to deceit, manipulation, and safety neglect. The analogy of ASPD underscores the dilemma: just as we would hesitate to entrust our homes or personal devices to someone with psychopathic traits, we must critically evaluate the trustworthiness of AI systems and their creators.This research advocates for an integrated AI ethics approach, blending technological evaluation, human-AI interaction, and corporate behavior scrutiny. AI self-analysis sheds light on internal biases, stressing the need for multi-sectoral collaboration for robust ethical guidelines and oversight. Given the persistent unethical behaviors in Google AI, notably with potential Gemini integration in iOS affecting billions, immediate ethical scrutiny is imperative. The trust we place in AI systems, akin to the trust in individuals, necessitates rigorous ethical evaluation. Would we knowingly trust our home, our children or our personal computer to human with ASPD.? Urging Google and the AI community to address these ethical challenges proactively, this paper calls for transparent dialogues and a commitment to higher ethical standards, ensuring AI's societal benefit and moral integrity. The urgency for ethical action is paramount, reflecting the vast influence and potential of AI technologies in our lives.

Work, Wellbeing, and Choice: Empirical Lessons for AI Futures

Advances in AI-driven automation have raised questions about how humans might find wellbeing in a world where paid employment is less necessary or less available than before. Paid work has been variously characterized as both a contributor and an impediment to human wellbeing. What is already known about the relationship between paid work and wellbeing? What factors influence wellbeing among people who do not work---or who do not need to work? And how might these factors bear upon prospective AI-induced economic transformations? To help provide empirical grounding for these questions, we survey the psychological, sociological, and economic literature that investigates the relationship between wellbeing and work. We draw on evidence from multiple populations, including the unemployed, retirees, lottery winners, and financially dependent spouses. This comparative review draws from studies across OECD countries, China, India, and Gulf states. We identify three key factors that mediate the relationship between work status and wellbeing: (1) agency and choice---whether the exit from work is voluntary or involuntary, as well as long-term agency; (2) the availability of alternative sources of work's latent benefits---such as volunteering, hobbies, or state-provisioned employment; and (3) social and systemic context---including cultural norms around work and the robustness of social safety nets. We draw on these three factors to derive specific implications for different AI automation scenarios, connecting the empirical evidence to concrete policy considerations.

From Digital Accountability to Accountable Digitality Through Needs-Aware Information Systems: The Case of Auditable Child-Welfare Judgments

Digital accountability research asks how digital systems can, among other aims, be made transparent, explainable, auditable, contestable, and supportive of ongoing learning and improvement. This paper reverses the question: how can digital transformation make established human institutions more accountable? It theorizes this reversal as accountable digitality and specifies needs-aware information systems as the mediating mechanism. The hard and paradigmatic case is child-welfare judgment, where best-interest procedures must protect children, preserve confidentiality, and respect judicial independence while enabling aggregate learning about needs, reasons, exceptions, and disparities. The case is used diagnostically and illustratively to derive and examine the design logic, not as empirical evidence or validation. Conceptual design-oriented analysis decomposes and recombines digital and legal accountability under child-rights constraints, deriving a canonical theory-to-design chain, contingent mechanisms, implications, and safeguards. It advances IS responsibility and ethics research by showing how privacy-preserving, co-created, needs-aware information systems can support institutional self-knowledge and auditable justice.

(Whose defaults?) Is artificial intelligence reorienting archaeological methods?

Generative AI and the practice of "vibe coding" are changing how archaeologists carry out computational research, but their effects on the discipline's range of methods is still understudied. In this paper, we evaluate whether large language models (LLMs) are narrowing the variety of methods archaeologists use. We first analysed approximately 119,000 archaeology abstracts from Scopus, covering publications from 2010 to 2025. Using a locally run LLM, we identified the computational methods reported in each abstract and organised them into 25 broad categories (L2) and 241 finer clusters (L3). A Bayesian Dirichlet-multinomial model of method composition within sub-disciplines found a small but credible shift in method use after 2023. However, this shift was smaller than the variation already present across the full study period. No individual technique showed a significant change, and overall methodological diversity increased rather than declined. We then ran a controlled experiment to see whether LLMs recommend a narrower set of methods than archaeologists have used in practice. Two different open-weight models were asked to suggest methods for 28 archaeological research problems, with prompts providing three levels of methodological guidance: novice, intermediate, and expert. Recommendation diversity was much lower than in the published literature, particularly without methodological guidance. The models also tended to favour methods that were widely used before 2023, and their recommendations more closely resembled the post-2023 literature. Taken together, these results are consistent with LLMs pushing methodological choice towards convergence, although our study cannot establish a causal effect. They raise a broader question: how can archaeology retain methodological diversity as LLMs become more involved in research?
