Elon Musk says he experienced ‘AI psychosis’ approximately six times over the past year

In an interview at X Takeover, Elon Musk said he had experienced ‘AI / SI psychosis’ approximately six times over the past year and that it ‘might be quite severe’. By ‘psychosis’, he meant believing that AI can understand beauty. The phrase is not a formal medical term; it is often used for worsening pre-existing delusions after repeated AI use and is also used as a label in tech circles. Marc Andreessen previously used the phrase ‘AI Psychosis as a Service’ (AIPAAS).
