AI chatbots tend to choose violence and nuclear strikes in wargames::undefined
This says more about us than it does about the chatbots, considering the data on which they’re trained…
I’d say it does to an extent, dependant on the source material. If they were trained on actual military strategies and tactics as their source material with proper context, I’d wager the responses would likely be different.
Totally. Properly trained AI would probably just flood a country with misinformation to trigger a civil war. After it installs a puppet government, it can leverage that countries resources against other enemies.
Maybe… But, hear me out, what if it means you can win nuclear wars? 🤔
Not that I want one, but the propaganda around nuclear war has been pretty extensive.
Michael Chrichton wrote about it in the late 90s if I remember right. He made some very interesting points about science, the politicization of science, and “Scientism”.
“Nuclear Winter” for example, is based on some very bad, and very incorrect, math.
I think Ghandi proved this already in Civilization.
You don’t say. Chatbots are trained off of average raging people on the internet, there is no way they can be in a position of military power.
Maybe it comes to the conclusion that violence is objectively good
Just imagine where world population would be today if WWI hadn’t removed 1% of the population! (yes, sarcasm)
The reality is violence is part of the human condition, and it’s been an effective tool throughout time, or else people wouldn’t use it.
Also part of the human condition is trying to teach each new successive generation to be better than ourselves. We each only get ~80 years, and those first 20 are crucial.
