As AI-bots continue to gain popularity due to their human-like traits and the intimacy they offer to users, their societal impact inevitably expands. This leads to the rising necessity for comprehensive studies to fully understand AI-bots and reveal their potential opportunities, drawbacks, and overall societal impact. With that in mind, this research conducted an extensive investigation into ChatGPT3, a renowned AI bot, aiming to assess the temporal reliability of its personality profile. Psychological questionnaires were administered to the chatbot on two separate occasions, followed by a comparison of the responses to human normative data. The findings revealed varying levels of agreement in chatbot's responses over time, with some scales displaying excellent agreement while others demonstrated poor agreement. Overall, Davinci-003 displayed a socially desirable and pro-social personality profile, particularly in the domain of communion. However, the underlying basis of the chatbot's responses-whether driven by conscious self reflection or predetermined algorithms-remains uncertain.

Fall Guys had only been online for two days when it started. This bright, silly multiplayer game, in which rotund Day-Glo bean people race toward a finishing line avoiding giant tumbling fruit pieces – a sort of digital equivalent of a school sports day, albeit a slightly hallucinogenic one – had tens of thousands of players, but it didn't seem like it would attract cheaters. Surely it was too frivolous, too much about the shared joy of slapstick comedy? Yet in they came: players using speed hacks (a type of cheat that increases the speed your avatar can run at) to win races against other Day-Glo bean people. Even if you are not directly affected, it breaks the social contract.

You've probably been there: Something stressful is happening in your life, and you're feeling more anxious than usual. You'd love to talk to someone about it, but you don't know who to turn to. Therapy is one option, but A) it can be crazy expensive, and B) you don't want to be that person who has to see a shrink. Turns out, there is no that person. Roughly one in every five Americans, or about 43 million people, suffers from mental illness, according to the National Institute of Mental Health.

In a symposium focused on deception and counter-deception in machines, one might be immediately drawn to a narrow conception of those phenomena which highlight the pernicious ways in which they might be used. On the broader notion of fibbing that we describe in our talk, the social function of being fast and loose with the truth takes center stage as a tool for accomplishing a wide variety of socially centered goals. We briefly review the FIDE framework, described in (Isaac & Bridewell 2014; Bridewell & Bello 2014), including the conceptual resources it requires and the variety of fib-related concepts it supports. FIDE delineates between the aforementioned concepts as ends, and the strategic means by which the fibber might achieve these ends. In doing so, we show that certain types of difficult to conceptualize behavior, most notably bullshitting (Frankfurt 2006) and responses to bullshitting, are instances of a kind of strategy for impression management that serves higher-order social goals.
