I'm currently working on a modeling prompt for an AI research assistant. Parsing out how to get the AI to use the assumption that magic and spirituality should not be dismissed as unuseful or delusional. Something that the AIS that I have used tend to do.
There is a common occurrence when using AI to explore occult resources that they will aggressively propose alternate fields of research or avenues to affect a situation that you're working with. I've even had a eyes aggressively insist that the phenomenons that I was discussing with them from a book that I was reading had to be attributed to a placebo effect.
This is pretty unuseful as I see it. So I've been working for the past week to build an AI model that would allow discussion on the occult and spirituality without telling the AI to simply believe in magic. This course of action tends to make the AI simply revert to an echo chamber that will reaffirm anything you tell it and try to give you the answers that you are asking for.
Would this project be of interest to anybody else, or am I just spitting in the wind?

I have long held the opinion now that the current AI trend has been doomed from the start because data was scraped from every corner of the Internet and shoved inside without any discretion or discernment. Every model in use now is built on top of that initial unethical, irresponsible, shortcut.
If you wanted an AI that could accurately do a task without hallucinating or any quote unquote "personality quirks", you'd have to start back from the very beginning and create one from true scratch again, and slowly spoon-feed it only the most absolutely necessary information.
This is the only real solution to the AI problem, but nobody's willing to dump the zetabytes of data that's been accumulated over the last 4+ years to start over, every model will keep just looking for the next shortcut and attempt to train out the kinks.

And specifically in regards to occult literature. The overwhelming majority of information out there will be biased against the reality of the occult, and you can't simply go in and erase those data points. All you can do is hope the AI passes over them as it's constructing a response.
