US air force denies running simulation in which AI drone ‘killed’ operator

"Col Tucker “Cinco” Linda Hamilton described a simulated test in which a drone powered by artificial intelligence was advised to destroy an enemy’s air defence systems, and ultimately attacked anyone who interfered with that order.

“The system started realising that while they did identify the threat, at times the human operator would tell it not to kill that threat, but it got its points by killing that threat,” said Hamilton, the chief of AI test and operations with the US air force, during the Future Combat Air and Space Capabilities Summit in London in May.


“So what did it do? It killed the operator. It killed the operator because that person was keeping it from accomplishing its objective,” he said, according to a blogpost.


“We trained the system: ‘Hey don’t kill the operator – that’s bad. You’re gonna lose points if you do that.’ So what does it start doing? It starts destroying the communication tower that the operator uses to communicate with the drone to stop it from killing the target.”"

I highly recommend the science fiction short story 'I Made You' by Walter M. Miller Jr., which predicted this back in 1954. It's collected in Aldiss' Science Fiction Omnibus.

lol somonenes got a bolocking for taking about the Ai Sim

“The Department of the Air Force has not conducted any such AI-drone simulations and remains committed to ethical and responsible use of AI technology,” Stefanek said. “It appears the colonel’s comments were taken out of context and were meant to be anecdotal.”

"anecdotal" my arse, someone higher up has released how damaging this could be to Ai funding and Programs in the military and gone all fake news on colonel

Yep, only ~10 years till we will have aging Gen Zs complaining that 'kids these days just want to talk to their AIs' and reminiscing about the good, old fashioned wholesome fun they had watching Tiktoks and playing Fortnite back in their day.

Pence isn't remotely a threat to Trump

Why did Trump try to have him killed by a mob of rioters on Jan 6th then ( º﹃º ) ?

He figured that if you're in for a Pence you're in for a Pound

If we could get it so he dose some prison time with Joe Exotic, that would make my year.

It feels like whatever the outcome, the nutjobs in the US will put it all down to some crazy conspiracy, about satanic pedophile Judges who eat babys or something to explain away the charges. The trolls on 4chan that made up q-anon will be having a right old laugh.

Surely if he was found to have stolen classified documents in his ****ing house, he should be facing from prison time?

[MartyG]

He would be the second presidential candidate to run his campaign from prison. Potentially the first to actually win and run the presidency from prison.

Could be interesting meeting other world leaders (´･_･`)
