Why Experts Say You Need to Stop Insulting AI Immediately

SMM Updated 11/10/2026 - 12:39 CDT Technology continues to advance by leaps and bounds and this is where artificial intelligence ( AI ) is gaining ground. At present, in Spain, 69% of the population, according to recent data from the INE, uses this tool. However, it is sometimes not used correctly.

Well, from Xataka, a media outlet specialized in the subject, they issue a serious warning: “If you are one of those who insults AI when it makes a mistake, be careful. From now on it will have consequences ” Sophie Cunningham can’t stop laughing after Caitlin Clark joins her in viral AI recreation This is what would happen if AI were insulted: “We can't even vent to it anymore” From that outlet, they stressed that if the tool is insulted when it makes a mistake, “great care” will have to be taken: “From now on, you may face consequences .

Anthropic has updated its terms of use and now prohibits mistreating its models unnecessarily, so you will no longer be able to tell it over and over again when it messes up a report.” The question is: and what happens if it is insulted? W ell, the conversation “would end”, leaving it up in the air that “they may ban” your account, as they add from Xataka.

The reason for this decision comes from an Anthropic investigation into AI welfare and its possible capacity for suffering: “There is evidence where the model feels distress in certain heated requests,” they pointed out. Likewise, they stressed that public opinion is “divided”: “There are those who think AI should be treated just as well as a human, and there are those who wonder what the point is of protecting a system without consciousness,” they added.

“A while ago we were told that thanking AI consumed a lot of tokens, and now we can’t even vent to it anymore,” they concluded on the matter.
