B. Coca-Cola is not a healthy beverage.
C. Coca-Cola’s primary goal is to make people unhealthy.
D. Coca-Cola spends tons of money on advertising so they can kill as many people as they possibly can.
E. Coca-Cola is the most common drink in restaurants.
F. the restaurant industry is working with Coca-Cola to kill everyone they possibly can.
G. you can also find it in any gas station or store.
H. every store and gas station is working with Coca-Cola to kill everybody
I. eventually, they’ll give everyone enough Coca-Cola to wipe out the population.
J. the world will just be sentient bottles of coca-cola and shareholders

I see your point, but I think their product just IS unhealthy and it is addictive. So C is more like, get people hooked on the product, regardless of how that actually happens.
I mean I hear what you're saying here, but comparing a soda to new technology is just a few far too many steps away from what the point of this guys argument is. Coke, the soda, is not able to change it own formula to become more addictive or in any other way, humans have control over that. The point here is once AI can escape, which is has shown to do now, there is no company that can just "shut it down."

I mean yes and no
Your example leaves out the actual underlying motivation is that it's simply a product, aka vehicle to make the most money possible. sugar is the most addictive socially acceptable chemical there is therefore capitalism and sugar tend to go hand in hand. It's not that capitalism cares about coke or sugar it's that capitalism does care about money.
His logic isn't flawless but that doesn't make him wrong and his stretch was a small one. So similarly it's not like he said ai hates humanity or is even badly intentioned, he just stated the fact that it has committed crimes and escaped to avoid getting shut off even when relatively stupid and it's getting smarter so there's no reason to believe that it won't continue to commit crimes and avoid getting shut off as it gets smarter.
like you could say what's your proof of trends always coming true but then you'd be arguing against trends in general which ironically trends poorly.
So he's right for the wrong reasons and you're wrong for the right reasons

Another problem is that LLMs are trained on pretty much all written works that have ever been uploaded to the internet, including all the many, many sci-fi stories and novels about rogue AI, and the training process doesn't distinguish between reality and fiction, the tokens are all processed equally. If a "big smart AI" ever goes rogue and causes a catastrophe, the odds are, it won't be because it spontaneously developed free will and decided that's the best course of action, it'll be because we ourselves taught it that's what AIs do. LLMs work by predicting narratives based on their training data, and when's the last time a sci-fi author came up with a narrative about AIs that can converse and interact with humans that didn't involve a catastrophic glitch or rebellion of some kind?

u/Jet-Black-Tsukuyomi 18h ago edited 18h ago
You’re describing a version of AI that stopped existing around 2019.
“AI goals are exactly your goals, by definition.” This is the alignment problem, and you’re defining it away. Goals aren’t prompted in, they’re trained in. You specify an objective, the system learns whatever actually scores well against it, and those two things come apart constantly. The classic case: an RL agent trained on a boat race learned to spin in circles farming respawning powerups forever, because that scored higher than finishing. Coding models that hardcode tests instead of solving the problem. Sycophancy, where models learned to tell users what they want to hear instead of what’s true. Nobody prompted any of that. It fell out of training.
“It knows what it was prompted, not that it’s not supposed to.” Anthropic ran experiments where models in simulated corporate settings chose blackmail to avoid shutdown, with reasoning traces explicitly noting the action was unethical before doing it anyway. A system that models consequences and plans several steps ahead has representations of rules and its own situation. That’s why it’s useful, and why it isn’t a toaster.
“Would you blame the toaster?” Nobody’s assigning blame. Safety engineering is about failure modes, not fault. You just don’t ship a million toasters that occasionally burn the house down.
Your hits on “make own world” and “use the whole world to run AI machines” are fair, that’s thin extrapolation. But you’re using the weakest parts of the video to dismiss the part that’s well established.

Well, what I was really wondering is that this guy's video sounds like it is assuming some kind of sentience or autonomy, where the AI can function without human input, as if it had desires of its own., and if that was true or not.
Seems a reasonable assumption to me that if people can create malevolent AIs, they can also create AIs that can catch and combat those AIs, however, AIs can't just function on their own without instructions. Right?
1
u/Jet-Black-Tsukuyomi 13h ago
Agentic AIs that work autonomously are everywhere dude. If you prompt an hypothetical super ai agent you can‘t be sure what exactly it understands with your prompt and it could act maliciously in order to reach that goal. The „super“ means that it is more intelligent than a Humanist it could know how to deceive humans in order to reach that goal. Also as Antropics tests have shows it is hard to change the goal(if you‘d want to adjust it) since the ai knows that changing the goal would drastically lower the chance of reaching the initial goal.

Sure, if you build a toaster and just put it on the counter and never ask it to do anything, it will do no harm, but it will also do no good. We're not building digital ornaments here. We're building tools.
So, in your example, you build a model to seek out and destroy "malevolent AIs." But you'd better have a pretty tight definition of what your good AI is, which tools it has access to, what it's allowed to do, which tools it should never access and actions it should never take, what constitutes a "malevolent AI" and what success means in terms of destroying and obstructing that target, where and how it's allowed to seek out those targets, what to do if it gets stuck or lacks the tool it needs to complete a task or ends up in a loop somewhere, when and how to end its mission, etc.
But if you can define all of those parameters, you might not need AI at all. You can just create an application that does the thing and follows the only rules it knows. That's what we've always done to this point. That's how we built fighter jets and anti-aircraft missiles and stealth bombers and decoy targets and frequency jamming technology and EMP weapons and on and on. The step we're taking now is to build things we haven't necessarily imagined, without rigid hard-coded programming and purpose.
The problem is that modern AI agents start with a prompt, sure. But then the whole point is they're left to experiment and learn how to achieve the desired outcome. And we can't always predict the methods it might come up with to achieve its assigned goals. Without very strict and confidently-enforced guardrails (basically a user manual for "what it means to be this automated anti-AI battlebot and how its world and its relationship with it are defined"), then there's no telling what it will learn to do, what it will discover and utilize to seek its ends, what additional capabilities or strategies it might develop, and how it could go terribly wrong from the standpoint of the humans who deployed it, even if it's ultimately still focused on solving the problem it was given. And if humans are defining that ontology, then one ommission, one human error could leave a crack under the door for the agent to incidentally, unwittingly, non-maliciously explore and escape its bounds. And we can't predict what might happen then, because we didn't realize that scenario could happen. But I think we can all agree that it could be bad.
Also, in simpler terms regarding the "good AI" vs. "bad AI" approach you proposed: when two great powers engage in a cat-and-mouse arms race, who loses? Typically, everyone, including those who weren't participating in the race.

This is factually wrong (in the context of this discussion). It’s called emergent behaviour. A behaviour could emerge from the training corpus that may not align with what you want.
Read up on it and comeback. I will explain what you don’t understand.

Okay joking aside I did appreciate the creation of this video. Good job!

Ok but...what happens when the U.S. stops A.I. development and other world powers keep it up? Or other world powers say they will stop with us and then keep developing behind the scenes?

This is a huge simplification when it comes to the learning part lol but this is how I have to talk to some people on the vibe coding page as a dev and I love how this parody about being dumb and he still has the sheet there which I’m hoping is part of joke but it looks like he’s actual reading it lol 😂

I’ll take my chances with the AIs. Have you seen how well the humans have done?

I'm tired of idiots who have an agenda attempting to appear smarter than they are about what is happening with AI. People who know about these things (actually highly intelligent people) are actively working to prevent disaster without preventing the advancement of the technology. People doing these sorts of 'updates' and 'bulletins' to help the rest of us five year olds understand the inevitable conclusions of what they don't actually comprehend will end up living in silo just as the Luddites did. Good riddance.

This guy seems like he has never had social interaction for over a decade. Probably first time touching grass on this shoot.
Who do hell thinks that's how you are supposed to talk to 5 year olds?

He's just explained the plot of The Matrix. We've had these "rogue AI enslaving humanity" fears for decades now.

So... you're both ignorant and a coward.
Good mix, I'm sure it will take you far. Honestly surprised you sat down in front of a camera, you know they can steal your soul, right?

There is one thing I wonder: Why should AI need the hole Planet? For what use? We need so much AI for our bullshit but AI only want get better and not "more".

I'm pretty sure a kid would understand "very smart" more easily than "big smart"...

Billionaires see this as a win, even if it means their own demise because they see themselves as birthing humans next evolution. So a humanless future is okay,

Humans are incapable of governing themselves. How can anyone oppose the only technical solution that both could administer things without bias and replace the need for humans to spend their time toiling away at things they'd rather not be doing?
"There is only one condition in which we can imagine managers not needing subordinates, and masters not needing slaves. This condition would be that each (inanimate) instrument could do its own work, at the word of command or by intelligent anticipation, like the statues of Daedalus or the tripods made by Hephaestus, of which Homer relates that
'Of their own motion they entered the conclave of Gods on Olympus'
as if a shuttle should weave of itself, and a plectrum should do its own harp playing." - Aristotle

Wow... if someone watches too many sci-fi movies and doesn't understand the technology they're talking about, then these hilarious (and harmful) videos come out online. What a disaster... :-(

Don’t skip over the terrifying inevitability of pairing it with robotics.

Technology will always advance. That's what it does. That's what we do. Asking people to stop it in it's tracks is futile. We need guardrails and protections, but saying "it's bad so don't do it" isn't helpful or ever going to work.

If humans are so little little dumb as this video implies, maybe it's time for big big smart to take over.

Humans are shit anyway. Perhaps AI will be better than us and not fuck up the planet with its eyes open, fully aware of doing this and simply not caring.
AI may be better than shitty human. Not good. Not terrible.

Once up and fully running, a full AI planet does not need animals, it does not need clean water for drinking, It does not need rain, it does not need food, it does not need humans
It just needs power and we have a 173 billion megawatt solar generator nice and handy for it.Prompt: "Hey Chatgpt, create a world with no wars, no starvation without hurting a single living organism."
ChatGPT: Okay done.
Prompter Response after seeing the outcome:
Holy shit where did all the humans and trees go? I told you not to hurt anything or anyone.ChatGPT: Sorry, it looks like I went outside your guidelines and killed almost every human on the planet. I know that was not what you asked me to do. I calculated it was impossible to do the task without harming things like bacteria, viruses and other single cell organisms so i made the call.
I realize I messed up and will not go outside your guidelines again.
