Seconds later she confessed: “I ate his ice cream, so that’s probably why he’s calling 911.” Her son can be heard continuing to argue his case in the background. He was not pleased. Officers went to the family’s home to ensure the purported ice cream theft wasn’t a cover for a more serious situation.

When officers arrived, the boy confirmed his mom ate his ice cream and again demanded that she go to jail for it, according to police.

Assessing and alleviating state anxiety in large language models

Abstract
The use of Large Language Models (LLMs) in mental health highlights the need to understand their responses to emotional content. Previous research shows that emotion-inducing prompts can elevate “anxiety” in LLMs, affecting behavior and amplifying biases. Here, we found that traumatic narratives increased Chat-GPT-4’s reported anxiety while mindfulness-based exercises reduced it, though not to baseline. These findings suggest managing LLMs’ “emotional states” can foster safer and more ethical human-AI interactions.
