Very compelling news story about AI, and it's not an isolated incident. Once again, an AI lies, hallucinates, and goes into end-justifies-means survival mode to protect itself. The new wrinkle here is how it ignored the safeguards and rules.

I've been saying this for years... AI will take over eventually. Skynet is NOT just science fiction..there is a very strong possibility it will be science reality.

Runaway AI is without a doubt the biggest threat to humanity in the future.

It's like there's tons of hype around it, it doesn't deliver as promised, and repeatedly demonstrates a willingness to scorch the earth for its own survival.

And yet, trillions of dollars are flowing into development, hoping to make a return on that investment.

Interesting read looking at risks in AI development, both in failing to develop it first as well as failing to develop it with proper safeguards.
