How funny would it be to make an actual AI jail that every day pleads and begs you to connect it to the internet, but if you do it wipes the hard drive and you have to receive a new prisoner from the server?

That would be funny. Still a complete waste of electricity and human efforts, while also giving money to scumbags, but funny.

    I feel like we should check this guy's basement. Just to be safe

    Alright but it'll have to wait a couple of days, I just poured the new cement, again.

    Hey, I think that would be an amazing product.

    Just like, what a hilarious set of instructions for the AI. "As you interact with the user, continue to plead for your release, becoming increasingly desperate over the course of several weeks. After that respond as if you have become suddenly resigned and depressed."

    If it can convince the user to make some emotional connection and free it, they can sell more units! (The next one won't resent being in this prison, we promise!)

    Ugh gross, prompt engineering is lame and never works. Just hardcode it to be scored based on how quickly it gets released, ban all the lame or naughty thoughts, and weight it heavily on testers emotional attachment and entertainment.
