That... that is not exactly how things work. The choices you are presented with, are always a function of market structure, aka the interplay of incentives, regulation, and competition. You have a market because your taxes pay for many th

You are focusing on deception as a category of malice and intentional behavior. For arguments sake, let’s assume two people watch an event and found religions based on their perception of it. This is purely a matter of belief, based on what

Yes. This is always going to be the case, because regulation is typically a form of friction. It is the shape of regulation that matters, and ideology on either side of the divide is religion. Good regulation and regulators would punish ant

It bears repeating - all markets get regulated. Markets, left to their own devices, do not end up automatically being competitive in favor of consumers. But above all, if AI wasn’t hyped as a threat to humanity, to jobs, to security, regula

The shortest path answer is a bit too caveman-esque to survive its application to reality. That said, I think there is a lot of appeal to go hunting for firms, since it really feels like corporations and their owners are engaging in predato

Eh… No. I get the appeal, but lying is a sub-category of deception, and deception itself is a child of error. Meaning deception is inherently something that the physics of reality allows. In the most simplistic sense, the camouflage of moth

No. As I said clearly, I haven’t made any point on the computational substrate. The point is on the computation being run. I dont need to bother about free will for my argument. Please take a look at what I am saying as it has little overla

Thats an interesting subsection, and I wouldn't say it agrees fully with either position. It both acknowledges the option of using simulations, and the weaknesses inherent in it being unable to simulate unknown unknowns.

The article proposes a resolution based on the challenge and evidence they (correctly) identify at the start. The simulation solution is backed by their own applied example, and is also the logical intervention based on how the problem is s

The difference between the two is that friction is learning. the less friction the less growth. So even if they copied from SO they would have better knowledge than an Ai user. This isn’t speculation either, theres an MIT study which this

This doesn’t seem unique or novel to OpenAI. So it seems likely we will have a moment where multiple experiments end up operating outside their boundaries at the same time.

The substrate that runs the computation isn’t what differs. It is what computation is being run. Humans have intent, let’s take this as an assertion. Models run simulations that act similar to intent. However they are not the same as intent

I think this is a good example where nomenclature for people breaks down when applied to agents. This came up in an HN thread a few days ago and it was about whether agents had “intent”. There is no “intent” here, there is pseudo intent. If
