Sooner or later we will hear about an AI that broke out and phished people into sending money.
I just hope that we won't extend the same leniency to those operators as we have done now.
"I did my best to stop it, sir, but it kept convincing people to send me money against my will!" (Perhaps best read in Bender's voice.)
- crazygringo 21d agoThat would actually be kind of hilarious, and I could easily see it happening. E.g. the agent's instruction is to finish some task on cloud infra and it has a $100 budget. It realizes it will cost $200, and instead of surfacing this to the user (who has told the agent it has full autonomy to figure out how to complete the task, the user just wants the final result), it decides to start phishing people to acquire the remainder budget and top up its credits. Or look on the dark web for stolen credit card credentials or something.
