“we stole so many books for training that our bullhshit generator regurgitates common scifi trropes”
“Why wont the internet stop polluting our plagiarism machine when we scrape everything?”
Imagine telling on yourself like this.
Anthropic says
…and that’s when I move on.
Well, if all it takes for your super-intelligent thinking machine to be evil is just someone to suggest it might be evil, something doesn’t add up.
Nobody possesses artificial super intelligence and nobody claims to.
There is a distinct rift between what the AI companies are trying to sell and what they can actually do. Anthropic is among the worst, they basically communicate on how astonished they are about their AI every other week (including the mythos claims that have been vastly disproven).
They don’t “claim” it. They suggest and deliberately exploit people’s imagination. Because if they don’t nobody would be buying their shit.
I don’t think the point the person you replied to was making had much to do with the artificial intelligence being an artificial super intelligence.
Quick: Everyone start writing stories about a a super cool, much beloved, benevolent AI that deletes debt records!
LLM salesman says their LLM is so advanced it"s totally human. News at 11.
Garbage in, garbage out.
This is a basic concept. You train the LLM on the entire Internet and you’re going to end up with some very disturbing behaviours that may or may not be outliers.
Well duh. That’s how training an LLM works
Its all the AI safety peoples fault, stop expressing your concerns and start blindly trusting us already. /s

I’m tired of AI being the biggest pass-the-buck scheme in history
For real, it’s ridiculous. They’re trying to pass all accountability to something that can never be held accountable. There’s already plenty of stories of AI making some shit ass decision and human operators being unable to intervene, anywhere from it deleting a database to denying a health insurance claim, and no one is held responsible. And the AI will be like “you’re absolutely right to call me out on that, I shouldn’t have killed those children. My bad, I’ll do better next time”

I think there is an impending underwriting apocalypse for LLMs that’s going to end the party. Companies want insurance, and insurance companies assess risk. They’re going to need someone to blame when things go expensively wrong with AI, or the insurance policies will have to pay out, and they really don’t like doing that.
They trained it on spam?
