@lcwheeler @petergleick if they trained it on Wargames it wouldn't be this stupid.

@distractal @petergleick gah I don't grok anyone that really tests these word shufflers would trust them for cooking. It doesn't take much testing w Gemini to realize it often won't adjust even when you point out errors.

@petergleick Assuming that the data center is well shielded against the EMP, this is a very rational choice. Von Neumann would be proud.

@bencourtice @petergleick I am starting to hope for thermo-nuclear obliteration just to stop the stupidity. I pray that the cockroaches learn from our failures.

@petergleick the writer still falls in to the trap of calling the output "reasoning", I didn't even need to get past the paywall to see that. Not worth my time to look further, that's enough to see that it's bad reporting.

@petergleick Musk named his “AI” supercomputer “Colossus” :( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colossus%3A_The_Forbin_Project

@lcwheeler @petergleick & sci-fi writers & Hollywood make it seem super-cool
See also the movies “Wall St.”, “Wolf of Wall St.,” etc.

@petergleick
No, because the computer in War Games had yo be goaded into using nukes.

@petergleick won’t hurt AI. Just saying

@petergleick
Real humans, at some point, do the total cost calculation of afterwards having to live in constant fear of having the same done to them as well as the damage to humanity, international relations and trade and their own standards of living...

And decide that this is not worth it.

#AI just gets told "to win" and executes without the human subtext
