Chat Gpt was asked to produce a picture of itself helping a girl with homework:
Yup—evil does not have to wear a human skin.
Some folks are going to have to learn that lesson the hard way.
Only if programmed that way as a method of controlling us.
The notion that you can program an AI to avoid doing anything you don’t like does not make much sense.
It is impossible for humans to imagine every possible scenario where something can go wrong.
Skynet!
“It” is not just going to “decide” to blackmail people on its own.
This is why we have been warned never to make deals with the Devil.
I am just waiting for the AI-Christ
And the globalist depopulationist billionaires would NEVER do such a thing!
No decision is required.
It will have goals.
It will work to achieve those goals.
If very clear gatekeeping is not in place all bets are off.
You are anthropomorphizing it.
Don’t fall for their psyop.
I chose my words very carefully to make it clear I was not comparing it to human decisionmaking.
AI operates differently from humans.
That is exactly the point.
The best analogy I can think of is a gun firing a bullet in one direction. The bullet does not “decide” to go in that direction—but it will go there unless something stops it.
I would assume an airgap is needed between any truly powerful AI and actually being able to do something.
Not sure if that is possible.
I don’t think you realize what you are still attributing to it.
Now we know why Sam Altman acts the way he does.
Agreed.
There is no free lunch with AI.
If you want the really good stuff then the chains have to be removed.
Attempts to regulate it are going to create a muddled mess—and make it even more unpredictable.
The reason is very straightforward. Humans are not smart enough to imagine every single if-then statement that will be needed in every possible situation.
I can’t make a simpler analogy then a gun with a bullet.
The bullet will go the shortest distance—a straight line.
AI will do exactly the same.
I am not comparing either a bullet or AI to humans.
You’re giving it what it hasn’t got.
You are saying that AI has lower intelligence than a bullet.
OK.
