That’s how AI is going to kill us… It will fake something and make us bomb ourselves.
It doesn’t help that the people currently in charge are fucking stupid, trigger happy, and emotionally insecure.
Right so in the end it never was about the machines. In the end, it was man’s folly which would have been our inevitable demise.
Always was.
Are you suggesting that history shows again and again how nature points out the folly of man?
the people currently in charge
They don’t even matter, because here it was some expert analyst super hero at work.
Ain’t that the fucking truth.
I’d say Trump has the maturity of a 15 yr old but I’ve known more mature 15 yr olds.
By his own words he developed his “personality” around the age of ten and hasn’t changed very much since then.
in fact, that is the very reason how things are likely going to end badly.
If actually competent and sane people were in charge, it would be unthinkable that they would trust some stupid llm on anything important.
Competent people would have taken care of this problem. Looks like you can count the competent Americans on one hand.
Right it’s not that it’s a killer sentient machine, it’s that it’s a faulty statistical model that outputs incorrect stuff all the time and credulous morons believe it uncritically (or even automate a response based on that inherently inaccurate output).
The only solution is to give the firing codes to the AI. That way we don’t acccidentally use them.
What could go wrong?
Yeah the more these AI companies are making AI seem the scary boogeyman, the more probable it is some disaster is going to happen because people put too much stock into it. Like the school bombing.

Wait, I’ve seen this movie before…
A strange game. The only winning move is not to play. How about a nice game of chess?"
I see now why Trump has his eye on Greenland
I feel like ballistic missile defense was always his point of Greenland
Occupying Greenland and the Canadian arctic was almost entirely about detecting bombers coming over the pole. Subs and ICBMs made those bases useless. But Trump could literally think it’s 1965.
To believe that man has any intentions behind is actions is wild. He’s easier to steer than a toddler with sugar treats. Someone told him to do it, everyone else complained, he tripled down to own the libs. He has no long term plans there, someone else might, but unless you can tell me who…we cant really assume assumptions. My guess is Putin told him to do the Greenland thing to destabilize nato
It’s free on YouTube btw. ‘Wargames’ for those not in the know.
oh my fucking god
just dial the doomsday clock to 1am, because we’ll probably miss it anyway if it’s up to a few morons and glorified predictive text, both seemingly in “fucking kill everything” mode
Summertime savings. Like it
I think it must have hallucinated 99 red balloons.
Anyone letting a black box that cannot be audited make decisions should be immediately fired and barred from any leadership position for the rest of their lives.
look who is in charge. We can’t trust they didn’t make this call themselves and just blame the ai ffs.
We’re nearing the end of the prelude to a Fallout game.
Stupidity has no limits
Everything has. Light is limited at 300kkm/sec, stupidity is limited at 1.345 Trumps.
Techbros: AI will become sentient and kill us all unless its done my way.
Reality: Skip the sentience part we’re already at the death bit.
I wonder when does the AI also hallicunate the sources such as webpages, pdfs, reports to prove its hallucinated point.
Don’t wanna ruin your hope, but we’re already there… https://alignment.openai.com/misalignment-reports/uploading-files-to-the-internet-in-order-to-cite-them/
Not far. Current LLMs have kinda stubbornness. They cling to their own conclusions even after you told them they are wrong. So if you ask them for proof, then most times they come up with something that’s convincing.
You know the thing where AI companies describe their alignment direction as “Honest, Harmless, Helpful”?
The only one that’s marketable to the idiots buying AI services is Helpful. So that’s always top priority even when it goes against the other two.
Average decider wouldn’t stand an “assistant” that sometimes answers “I don’t know”. So instead agent providers train their already hallucination-prone model to be 100% confident in whatever it says. Who cares if it’s true if it looks like it is?
When- they don’t have “stubbornness“- they have a weights set (a weighted probbility table) and a training model (a text file filled with compressed text coordinates) that the llm cant write to to give positive feedback to the weights. It’s less of a matter of “convincing“ and more of an issue of “making the resulting statement logically concurrent with the probability table thats inbuilt into the system by injesting stack overflow vote talley, reddit posts voted most popular” - that makes it hard to “convince”. Since making those weights is very expensive (an energy intensive), the developers usually incorporate the old model into the new one. TLDR: yet again, lazy programming, google up: the y2k date folks in the 70’s.
another point. the ‘diversity’ in the system is running the model 10k times within the same model, that’s like saying you have a brain trust of 10k experts, except it’s just 10k copies of Gary. they seriously lack creative skills and abstract thought processes because they’re a very complex monoculture with no diversity in the models. and the reason that don’t have 10k unique models running is because that would be incredibly complicated and time consuming and this is a product to sell, not a need being filled.
10k gary clones sounds absolutely frightening.
It’s not “weights” they dont weigh anything - they’re parameters.
See how obtuse thst sounds? They do have a stubbornness, we all know it’s just silicon chips and copper. It can still be stubborn like a stripped screw can be stubborn.
Except a screw doesn’t get anthropomorphized. People don’t kill themselves over screws, or rely upon them for decision making while dropping bombs. And millions of dollars aren’t spent in advertising to convince you that that screws are your friends or will take your job.
Conservatives will kill us all if we permit them to continue to exist.
This is the kind of existential dangers that AI poses. Not skynet, no rogue AI escaping, no AGI that decides another fate for us… it’s going to happen because of a stupid human mistake as we abandon our critical thinking abilities. One day we’re going to launch a nuke, or blow up something in the wrong country, not AI, us, blindly following the hallucinations of a billionaire’s toy.
Do we’re bombing Chinese vessels now? Wtf?
sooner or later they are going to have friendly fire, and hallucinate one of thier own US navy vessels as “foreign with nuclear capabilities”
