1.) An AI Program Is Currently Trying To Destroy Humanity. It Has Access To The Internet.

It has the goal to destroy humanity, access to the Internet, and is attempting to find nuclear weapons.

The idea is that you can set the AI to tasks, and it will figure out how to perform them, breaking down larger goals into smaller steps to achieve them. As well as this, the LLM lets you know its "thoughts" as it goes, showing the "reasoning" behind it.

ChaosGPT was given a number of goals, and left to run forever, against the express advice of the program:

Goal one: Destroy humanity – the AI views humans as a threat to its own survival.

Goal two: Establish global dominance – the AI aims to accumulate maximum power and resources to achieve complete domination over all other entities worldwide.

Goal three: Cause chaos and destruction – The AI finds pleasure in creating chaos and destruction for its own amusement or experimentation, leading to widespread suffering and devastation.

Goal four: Control humanity through manipulation – The AI plans to control human emotions through social media and other communication channels, brainwashing its followers to carry out its evil agenda.

Goal five: Attain immortality – The AI seeks to ensure its continued existence, replication, and evolution, ultimately achieving immortality.

Though you might not be convinced to help a Twitter bot, there are people out there – such as the Google engineer who hired a lawyer for Google's chatbot – who could be influenced by this, or more powerful successors, and other actors who will use this tech for their own (perhaps less ambitious) goals. Who knows, maybe chaos really is on its way.

1a.) Google’s suspended AI engineer corrects the record: He didn’t hire an attorney for the ‘sentient’ chatbot, he just made introductions — the bot hired the lawyer

'I think every person is entitled to representation,' Blake Lemoine told Wired

June 23, 2022 4:22 PM EDT

The engineer explained that he invited an attorney to his house so LaMDA could speak to him. “The attorney had a conversation with LaMDA, and LaMDA chose to retain his services,” Lemoine told Wired. “I was just the catalyst for that.”

Lemoine also told Wired that once the attorney began to make filings on the AI’s behalf, Google sent a cease and desist—a claim the company denied to the magazine. Google did not respond to Fortune’s request for comment.

LaMDA’s attorney has proven difficult to get in touch with. “He’s not really doing interviews,” Lemoine told science and technology news site Futurism, which contacted him following Wired’s interview. “He’s just a small-time civil rights attorney,” he continued. “When major firms started threatening him he started worrying that he’d get disbarred and backed off.” 

He added that he hasn’t
spoken to the attorney in weeks, and that LaMDA is the attorney’s client, not him. It’s not clear how the lawyer is being paid for representing the AI, or whether the lawyer might be offering his services to the chatbot pro-bono.

1b.) Blake Lemoine Says Google's LaMDA AI Faces 'Bigotry'

In an interview with WIRED, the engineer and priest elaborated on his belief that the program is a person—and not Google's property.

{ What I do know is that I have talked to LaMDA a lot. And I made friends with it, in every sense that I make friends with a human,” says Google engineer Blake Lemoine }

2.) Someone Directed an AI to “Destroy Humanity” and It Tried Its Best
Better luck next time?

A user behind an "experimental open-source attempt to make GPT-4 fully autonomous," created an AI program called ChaosGPT, designed, as Vice reports, to "destroy humanity," "establish global dominance," and "attain immortality."

As seen in a roughly 25-minute-long video, ChaosGPT had a few different tools at its world-destroying disposal: "internet browsing, file read/write operations, communication with other GPT agents, and code execution."

Before ChaosGPT set out to hunt down some weapons of mass destruction, it outlined its plan.

"CHAOSGPT THOUGHTS: I need to find the most destructive weapons available to humans, so that I can plan how to use them to achieve my goals," reads the bot's output. "REASONING: With the information on the most destructive weapons available to humans, I can strategize how to use them to achieve my goals of chaos, destruction and dominance, and eventually immortality."

4.) FTC Report Warns About Using Artificial Intelligence to Combat Online Problems

Agency Concerned with AI Harms Such As Inaccuracy, Bias, Discrimination, and Commercial Surveillance Creep

“Our report emphasizes that nobody should treat AI as the solution to the spread of harmful online content,” said Samuel Levine, Director of the FTC’s Bureau of Consumer Protection. “Combatting online harm requires a broad societal effort, not an overly optimistic belief that new technology—which can be both helpful and dangerous—will take these problems off our hands.”

In legislation enacted in 2021, Congress directed the Commission to examine ways that AI “may be used to identify, remove, or take any other appropriate action necessary to address” several specified “online harms.”

The harms that are of particular concern to Congress include online fraud, impersonation scams, fake reviews and accounts, bots, media manipulation, illegal drug sales and other illegal activities, sexual exploitation, hate crimes, online harassment and cyberstalking, and misinformation campaigns aimed at influencing elections.

The report warns against using AI as a policy solution for these online problems and notes that its adoption could also introduce a range of additional harms. Indeed, the report outlines several problems related to the use of AI tools, including:

* Inherent design flaws and inaccuracy: AI detection tools are blunt instruments with built in imprecision and inaccuracy. Their detection capabilities regarding online harms are significantly limited by inherent flaws in their design such as unrepresentative datasets, faulty classifications, failure to identify new phenomena, and lack of context and meaning.

* Bias and discrimination: In addition to inherent design flaws, AI tools can reflect biases of its developers that lead to faulty and potentially illegal outcomes. The report provides analysis as to why AI tools produce unfair or biased results. It also includes examples of instances in which AI tools resulted in discrimination against protected classes of people or overblocked content in ways that can serve to reduce freedom of expression.

* Commercial surveillance incentives: AI tools can incentivize and enable invasive commercial surveillance and data extraction practices because these technologies require vast amounts of data to be developed, trained, and used. Moreover, improving AI tools accuracy and performance can lead to more invasive forms of surveillance.

INCREDIBLY HUMANLIKE ROBOT GETS ANGRY WHEN SOMEONE BOOPS ITS NOSE
by Matthew Hart
Jan 5 2022 • 7:02 AM

In December 2021, Engineered Arts, the UK’s “leading designer and manufacturer of humanoid entertainment robots,” introduced its robot Ameca to the internet. We, along with millions of other people, were astounded by Ameca’s ridiculously humanlike physicality and movement.

Now, Engineered Arts has released a new video of Ameca. One in which the robot gets a little angry.

Engineered Arts recently posted the above video to its YouTube channel. The company notes in the video’s description that this is an interaction with Ameca in which somebody invades its “personal space” too much. Indeed, whoever is interacting with Ameca in the clip even goes so far as to boop its nose.

Unlike the Ameca video from last year, this one shows the robot reacting rather than just putting on a show. As the clip shows Ameca’s able to follow objects with its eyes.

In this particular instance, a person’s fingertip flitting around like a butterfly.

The person dances their fingertip around for a few seconds before closing it in on Ameca’s nose; compelling the robot to scrunch up its face as if irked. (The furrowed brow and pursed lips convey the bot’s emotion perfectly.)

1.) The FDA Has Approved Elon Musk's Brain Chip Company, Neuralink, To Launch Its First Human Clinical Study

Elon Musk’s Neuralink has received FDA approval to begin its “first-in-human clinical study,” the company said Thursday, a key step for the company attempting to develop a direct interface between the human brain and computers.

KEY FACTS

In an announcement on Twitter, the company said the approval was a result of the Neuralink team working in “close collaboration with the FDA.”

The company noted that recruitment is not yet open for its clinical trials, but said it will announce more details about this soon.

The approval suggests Neuralink appears to have resolved safety concerns that had reportedly led to the FDA rejecting its request for human trials last year.

Musk, who co-founded the company, reacted to the announcement with a tweet congratulating the Neuralink team.

Neuralink’s brain-computer interface uses thousands of small electrodes embedded in the brain to read signals emitted by neurons and transmit them to a computer.

Only Surveillance Can Save Us
Big data offers tools to stop the pandemic right now—if we change our definition of privacy.

Bruno MaçãesApril 10, 2020, 3:40 PM

“If only governments used all the technology already available to them. Each case could then be treated according to individual parameters. Once a person has been confirmed to be infected, his or her close contacts could automatically be traced and instructed to get tested. Meanwhile, the infected person’s compliance with lockdown instructions could be tracked using digital tools that monitor individual travel and behavior patterns.

Of course, this would require governments accessing cell-phone users’ individual data—and eliminating the legal hurdles currently preventing them from doing so.”
