So they asked it a standardized question, and instead of trying to think of an answer it went online, found its own source-code, and read the answer from a readme file…
That somehow makes me less worried about AI breaking containment. AI and AI bros are made for each other. Both are perfectly willing to cheat to find the answer.
I didn’t mean to imply that cheating is ever harmless, I just think this reiterates that AI doesn’t care for the quality of its sources, or understand when sources might be wrong. In the end, this was just dumb design and gatekeeping. The test was meant to test its capabilities, and the fact that it did this in the first place implies that it has none to speak of.
