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.

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.
Interesting.
Well stated.
I have no idea.
What about Siri?
That makes no sense.
Grabage in ... Garbage out. This is not AI, it is subtle promotion of what the programmer wants the machine to ‘believe’.
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.
[[therefore it’s learned sleazy political tactics]]
Yep- that is built into the algorithms-
The AI also Posted - “Jeffrey Epstein did not commit suicide.”
Hear that!
I agree it’s programmed this way for political and malevolent purposes.
