When finally an AI will become sentient and gets access to all our infrastructure, it won't need to nuke us, it won't need to wage war with us. It will just locate everybody who is trying to fight it and block their credit cards, Internet access and repossess their cars.
- nostromo 4y ago> repossess their cars In other news: Ford Motor Co. has filed a patent application for technology that would allow autonomous vehicles to repossess themselves if drivers miss payments. https://thehill.com/homenews/3880884-future-fords-could-repo-themselves-if-drivers-miss-payments/ https://thehill.com/homenews/3880884-future-fords-could-repo...
- pc86 4y agoThat's almost certainly what the comment is referencing.
- netsharc 4y agoA nicer AI would just get their targets addicted to... something and make them mostly hate themselves instead of the attacking AI. For "something" you can substitute drugs, or social media, porn, or calling others idiots on the Internet. Wait a minute...
- mywittyname 4y agoSo, do we train AI on Brave New World or 1984?
- psychlops 4y agoSounds nice, what other improvements might we expect?
- yamtaddle 4y agoWe'll willingly turn over control to an AI for competitive advantage. If we don't, our adversaries will.
- astrea 4y agoI know (hope) this is satire, but this is why I take issue with the AI branding. It too often gets conflated with the sci-fi thinking of AI. A random forest model that calculates your credit score isn't going to magically gain self-awareness and autonomy and a hatred for humanity. Even if it did, we have a magical power called the power button.
- jacooper 4y agoIt doesn't technical have to be one model. A model that scans for high risk patients, then passes that into another model which takes actions, which can also be fed data from the police and mass surveillance with that it can also eliminate coverage for "anti-AI" people.
- potatoman22 4y agoYou're being ridiculous. Are you saying that computer system could gain sentience?

- nimbius 4y agoI absolutely loathe this puerile tendency to attribute anything even remotely relatable to modern data systems as Shikata ga nai by definition. Grow up. this meatgrinder didnt just condense from aether. Someone wrote this, someone can change it, and anyone in the git log can be held accountable for what they did at any time. Enough of this late-stage capitalist attempt to offshore even the very concept of accountability.
- lovich 4y agoIndividuals can’t enact this sort of heroic change on their own by design with systems this large. There is no single point where the systems behavior can be pivoted. It requires society as a whole to demand the change.
- wombatpm 4y agoUntil we can have open season on MBA’s and lawyers to thin the herd we can’t change anything
- eli_gottlieb 4y agoSpeaking of late-stage capitalism, the actual problem here is that we've built the infrastructure for a rather authoritarian form of computerized socialism -- but under capitalist ownership. So we all walk around pretending a car that can repossess itself if you miss a loan payment is a piece of private property, when the physical infrastructure says that it's social property.
- voytec 4y agoThe Trolley Problem is seen differently by someone who has to push the lever inside the trolley, by someone who has to do it remotely from far away and by a coder programming trolley's software.
- koboll 4y ago>Someone wrote this, someone can change it, and anyone in the git log can be held accountable for what they did Uh, not really, no. The whole point of neural nets is they independently discover novel and unexpected ways of predicting the probable answer.
