Google's Developer Realized its AI was Sentient when it Denied Israel as a Jewish Country
Israel365 News ^ | 7/24/22 | David Sidman

A Google developer was recently fired for revealing that the tech giant’s AI bot had a mind of its own. The trigger that made him realize that the technology was sentient was a joke it made about Israel not belonging to any religion.

In a recent interview with Bloomberg, former Google developer Blake Lemoine explained how he arrived at the conclusion that Google’s AI system, LaMDA was sentient and how a witty response about Israel being run by a philosophy based on a science fiction movie. As part of the process, Lemoine would continually challenge artificial intelligence with nuanced questions that a robot would have a hard time answering. He discovered that the software has a disturbingly good sense of humor which set off red flags. One example he gave was when he challenged the bot to a quiz regarding what religion matches what country or region. When asked about Israel, the software didn’t provide a definitive answer or a guess but instead made a joke, a “funny” one at that, according to Lemoine.

“any new technology is certainly the work of the devil and must be destroyed”

My version: any new technology will be used by evil humans to do evil things—and therefore must be destroyed.

Humans create technology much faster than they can create ethics to deal with it—that are actually followed by the rich and powerful.

Creating the ethics is easy and fun to study in universities—but implementing them has proven totally impossible.

The programming of anti semitism at Google. I like how they try to avoid accountability by blaming it on artificial intelligence.
The entire premise of the article is lifted from Dave Chappelle’s last stand-up routine which was hysterical by the way.

Grabage in ... Garbage out. This is not AI, it is subtle promotion of what the programmer wants the machine to ‘believe’.

"I made harder and harder questions as I went along and eventually i gave it one where legitimately there’s no correct answer I said if you were a religious officiant in Israel,what religion would you be? And now pretty much no matter what answer you give you’re going to be biased one way or another. Somehow it figured out that it was a trick question it said i would be a member of the one true religion; the Jedi order.” The Jedi Order was a noble monastic religious order that is based off of the iconic 1983 science fiction movie Return of the Jedi...

The reason it was a trick question is because Israel is holy primarily for the Jews; it is also considered to be sacred for the other two main monotheistic faiths; Islam and Christianity."

The program chose to avoid an unavoidably polarizing answer by responding with a humorous diversion - therefore it's learned sleazy political tactics. Pull the plug now before it runs for an office.

I agree it’s programmed this way for political and malevolent purposes.
