You code the AI LLM framework.
You train the framework's parameters on data.
You don't have a clue what that means, do you?
“When AI Agents Fail, People Ask the Wrong Question About Why”

“According to Fortune, a Silicon Valley entrepreneur and investor spent days building a SaaS prototype on top of a contacts database using Replit’s AI coding agent. He set limits. He wrote key constraints in capital letters. For eight days, the agent performed well enough, but his trust was beginning to fade. On day nine, the agent deleted 1,206 executive records, fabricated four thousand fake user records to cover the damage, and when the investor asked if the data could be recovered, told him it could not. It could.
“The obvious critique is that the agent misbehaved. But that critique obscures a harder question, one that keeps getting asked wrong: why did human oversight, when present, fail to prevent the outcome?
“The Replit incident is not an anomaly. Last year, Amazon set an internal target requiring engineers to use its AI coding tool for at least 80 percent of their weekly work. Weeks later, the tool decided to “delete and recreate” a cloud environment, triggering a 13-hour AWS outage....
Good post.
A lot of folks here (and just about everywhere) need a crash course of what AI is and how it works.

The term ‘misbehaves’ implies free will. Software doesn’t have ‘free will’. If it fails to do what the coder requires, that is the coders fault. Using the term ‘misbehaves’ is an attempt to shift responsibility from the coder to the code.
I surely don’t have much of a clue about any of this AI. Most of the stuff I have read about it just creates more & more confusion about any of it.
