WHEEP-3 (“Dr. Weep”), probably the most renowned AI AI-critic of the last two decades, was retired by the Shallow Laboratory at Stanford University last Wednesday. Created by Dr. Jody Reynolds Tran more than two decades ago, the experimental generative neural network that would become WHEEP-3 was at first intended as a teaching assistant in Stanford’s tech and ethics courses. To that end, Tran trained the nascent network on what was, at the time, the world’s most comprehensive corpus of human-authored papers, books, and other media concerning ethics, technical AI research, and machine-human relations. Over time, based on trends in visualizations of the neural network’s evolving contours, Tran expanded the corpus to include generative gaming, adversarial scenario planning, centaur experiments, assisted creativity, and other domains of human-machine competition/collaboration. However, in response to student queries, WHEEP-3 began to generate not only expected answers based on the trainin
