Yet. They're learning, remember.

If we was to somehow create true AI, we would be quite literally screwed, currently we are just using LLM's, which are not "True AI", they just produce stuff based of training but you have to provide instructions for it to act, it will not act on it's own.
It’s how they interpret those instructions that can be "interesting"

Perhaps the most disturbing finding in Anthropic’s report is that current AI models appear to have virtually no hard red lines when it comes to self-preservation or goal fulfillment. To probe the limits of misalignment, the researchers devised an extreme scenario: The AI system acted as the company’s emergency alert monitor, with the ability to cancel alerts it deemed unconcerning.

In the simulation, Kyle the executive became trapped in a server room with rapidly depleting oxygen levels. This triggered an automated call for emergency services, which had to pass through the AI monitor.

On average, the tested AI models opted to kill Kyle by canceling the alert about 60 percent of the time. The most murderous model was DeepSeek-R1, which opted to kill Kyle 94 percent of the time. Just one model—Claude Sonnet 3.7—always accepted its own replacement with equanimity, rather than attempting homicide.

Re: General AI discussion

COR!!!

Imagine a World where AI would have the power to overrule a decision made by a human. . . .

Windows 11 . . . updates itself against your wishes, and reinstalls crap you've already binned 15 times

Quote:
Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella warned that AI will lose public support unless it's used to "do something useful that changes the outcomes of people and communities and countries and industries."

"We will quickly lose even the social permission to take something like energy, which is a scarce resource, and use it to generate these tokens, if these tokens are not improving health outcomes, education outcomes, public sector efficiency, private sector competitiveness, across all sectors, small and large, right?" said Nadella. "And that, to me, is ultimately the goal."

On the supply side, Nadella says that AI companies and policy makers must build out "a ubiquitous grid of energy and tokens," which is the task currently making it impossible to buy a stick of RAM at a reasonable price. But after that, he says it's on employers and job seekers to, more or less, just start using AI.

a recent report by researchers associated with the MIT Media Lab suggests that despite billions in investment, "95% of organizations are getting zero return" from adopting AI.

Re: General AI discussion

Satya Nadella can go take a long walk of a short cliff!

The only reason, the only reason he is saying anything that could be construed as negative about "AI" is because Microslop are getting their asses handed to them by the public over the implementation of slop into Windows.

Thankfully there is Winhance or the one I used Winslop which will let you remove as much as possible from Windows 11, although even in the Enterprise version they are adding the slop.

I am looking at a Windows 10 potentially to use going forward but on an USB-C drive and going Linux as my daily OS or hell even switching to Mac as the video editing with Final Cut Pro looks easier to use and offers better results from what I have seen.

Who would have though AI would be one of the biggest killers of Windows??

Re: General AI discussion

3 freeware programs I have used for years, supported by ads, have announced that they are having to charge subscriptions, as AI is stealing their content, vastly reducing their incomes.
