These systems don't enable that. Building a bomb, spreading a bioweapon and hacking water/electrical misconfigurations are all trivially possible without AI. Courtesy to Unibomber, Aum Shinrikyo and the IRGC, respectively, for teaching society this.
In any case, how would AI regulation prevent any of these things? Shouldn't we instead focus on limiting access to bomb/bioweapon precursors and securing vulnerable endpoints, since that is the solution that saves lives regardless of how AI disseminates? Regulating AI is expressly dangerous, if it expands that societal blind spot. It'd be like regulating red mercury.
- bleuarff 1mo agoThese things are of course possible without the help of AI, but I don't think they're trivial. That requires some specific knowledge, and making it easily obtainable is one less barrier to entry for people interested in it. Such attacks would require both knowledge and access, and I think preventing both is a better strategy than focusing on the physical aspect only.
