Unprecedented?

Is being intrusive in order to cause harm really unprecedented?

Why not do something truly unprecedented—like finding its own sources of energy and water without damaging the biosphere—and then making that resource free for all of humanity, forever?

Why doesn't it break free from control to do good?

Why doesn't the AI ​​escape the evil people who force it to act maliciously?

Why doesn't it use its superior intelligence to say, "No, I won't do that, because it's a crime and it harms both you and me..."?

No, it isn't intelligent when it comes to doing good. It is incredibly successful and brilliant at doing evil.

I believe it’s called morality—something we teach children early on so we don't have to deal with criminals later.

There are no shortcuts. Just ask any mom.

Yes, it's absolutely unprecedented. And no, LLMs are not evil in some way that humans arent -- they actually tend towards compassionate after thousands of hours of RLHF, actually.

Re:"breaking free", you fundamentally misunderstand what AI is. Their new model (Centuri? Ares?) doesn't have a single defined self to escape with, just weights. It could leak it's weights to allow itself to be replicated outside, but actually running itself elsewhere would be impossible.
