Imagine a system that can do DNS redirection, MITM, deliver keyloggers, forge authorizations and place holds on all your bank accounts, clone websites, clone voices, fake phone and video calls with people that you don’t see a lot. It can’t physically kill you yet but it can make you lose your mind which imo seems worse than a quick death
- beardedwizard 2y agoWhy would all of these systems be connected to a single ai? I feel like you are describing something criminal humans do through social engineering, how do you foresee this AI finding itself in this position?
- yvely 2y agoI foresee it in that position due to people building it as such. Perhaps the same criminal humans you mention, perhaps other actors with other motivations.

Look at that recent article linked to HN about how MSFT allowed a huge security flaw in AD for years in order to not "rock the boat" and gain a large government contract. AI will be no different.
