Sonnet, GPT-5.2, Gemini Flash, in a set of 21 games, where conclusions are drawn from the LLMs self reported reasoning.
This is like writing a paper about kids in a literal sandbox fighting over ‘territory’.
The models employed don’t indicate the actual extents of machine reasoning even as we currently recognize them. They certainly don’t have the metacognition necessary to accurately understand their own reasoning. As we’ve seen with recent papers on how LLMs do math there’s a complete disconnect between actual and reported mechanism.
“Chilling” shouldn’t be the take away here.
- DaiPlusPlus 4mo ago> “Chilling” shouldn’t be the take away here. It is when you consider the personality currently occupying the office of US SecDef.
- shimman 4mo agoLLMs have already been used to bomb school girls, chilling is absolutely the operative word to use here. Especially since these delusional fools want to incorporate LLMs into everything.
- Hugsbox 4mo agoForgive my ignorance, but were LLMs involved in that decision? I don't remember hearing anything to that effect, but we're so bombarded by news these days I guess I could just be forgetting

- michaelmrose 4mo agoYes our government purportedly used technology to work up a list of targets in the Iran debacle as well just not with a LLM a distinction that to me just isn't that meaningful https://www.theguardian.com/news/2026/mar/26/ai-got-the-blame-for-the-iran-school-bombing-the-truth-is-far-more-worrying https://www.theguardian.com/news/2026/mar/26/ai-got-the-blam...
- conartist6 4mo agoI find it hard to imagine that no AI was involved. The people who know how it happened aren't interested in saying. At very least it comes from AI-like thinking. A human life has no value to an AI
- motoxpro 4mo agoSo in the conext you just laid out, you can apply that to this. "Artificial Intelligence Strategy for the Department of War" https://media.defense.gov/2026/Jan/12/2003855671/-1/-1/0/artificial-intelligence-strategy-for-the-department-of-war.pdf https://media.defense.gov/2026/Jan/12/2003855671/-1/-1/0/art... regardless of what the capabilities of the models are, they will be used in every situation possible.
