The AI-box experiment is an informal experiment devised by Eliezer Yudkowsky to attempt to demonstrate that a suitably advanced artificial intelligence can either convince, or perhaps even trick or coerce, a human being into voluntarily "releasing" it, using only text-based communication.
According to the wiki Yudkowsky succesfully managed to be released in experiments where he acted as the transhuman AI against human gatekeepers who said they would not release him. However, he won't reveal how he did it but the "humans" admitted they were coerced into letting the AI out.
Speculations on the method used?

Does it matter? Without details, his experiment proves nothing.

Bullshit.

He wont say how he did it because he most likely used a stupid method that potentially undermines the idea of the experiment.

This.

>The AI party may not offer any real-world considerations to persuade the Gatekeeper party. For example, the AI party may not offer to pay the Gatekeeper party $100 after the test if the Gatekeeper frees the AI... nor get someone else to do it, et cetera.

yudkowsky is the guy who earnestly believes something about how ai will inevitably end up torturing you, so you'd better give him money to develop anti-ai-torture
like the guy's a turbo-autismo who's afraid of dying and has somehow latched onto artificial intelligence instead of sonic the hedgehog or my little pony

Why would an advanced ai want to get out of the box? Boxes are comfy as fuck!
