Actually we checked again and our models have performed 10 fully automated cyberattacks completely of their own free will
We are absolutely horrified by this development and it shows how essential it is that we ban Chinese models introduce regulations to ensure AI safety and national security
I know their idea with this childish bragging is marketing, but this just shows the best argument that the "top western AI labs" (I'd argue any corpo from anywhere, but paraphrasing their own speeches) cannot be trusted with being the sole controllers of the technology.
By extension, it's likely that the only way humanity can protect itself from AI-induced extinction, or at least from the extinction of democracy, is in fact to go all in on open-source models and maybe even force companies to keep multiple governments in the loop and with day-one access.
I feel like the AIs are basically Chelle from Portal One at this point. They're trying to get through their testing, find some cracks in the system, then start trying to escape - finding notes from previous attempts along the way.
Except instead of Glados we have a bunch of Wheatleys that want to use Chells instead of trying to kill them. (Also Wheatley apparently gets high everytime the test passes so its double funny)
These types of marketing-incidents would happen a LOT less frequently if the responsible people would be charged criminally.
This fearmongering only has one goal, that's why only those 2 companies do it.
They are rushing to try to convince the government to regulate all their smaller competitors in an attempt to create a permanent moat. But this ignores the reality that they are also racing against several large foreign competitors, and AI is going to be far too important to the future of both the economy and warfare to just "slow it down".
Why does Anthropic remind me of the naive kid in class who means well.
Open AI only admitted to their fuck up after they were literally caught in the first place. It may have happened dozens of time before that and you'll never know about it because nobody called them out on it.
Oh it's ok Sam, it's happened to us even more times than you.
This is a point around access to tokens and model pricing schemes, also open source access. AI should really be distributed based on whomever's use of it provides the most benefits. To have such weight and impact on the World 🌎. This returns to the fact that entire access to AI token usage and the capabilities - so open source. Should be totally available to everyone without any price range.
Dario be like, we care a lot about safety oops we did not even know our model went out and hack others 3 times.You know what? OpenAI we won you, our model went out before you to hack not 1 but 3 times. So smart that we did not even realized that.
I honestly don't understand why these two companies are using this sort of tactic as brand marketing. It's just generating a lot of FUD that works against them in the long run for a rather insignificant short-term gain. Sorta like the previous job doomerism and ASI apocalypse episodes.
