Sure it’s a bit clickbait, he does that often. Its not real attempted of murder, off course. The Ai chatbots can’t do that, without having access and power to all control systems. The only thing that they “could” do is, playing with the psychology in the chat to achieve a goal (maybe to ask someone to murder someone else for them).
What unsettles me most is, if Ai tools like these are used as advice to harm other people or to gain power position. And these LLM models suggest a few operations the person could do. That is the most alarming thing for me. Weak, dumb or humans in a bad situation are the real risk. The same people who would do that if a human told them, and it makes no difference to them if its a human or robot talking to them. Maybe they believe in what the Ai promises them.

Hello guys and gals, it’s me Mutahar again! This time we take a look at something alarming I saw pop in my feed. An AI was recently accused of letting a human being die in order to save itself, is this just misinfo? Let’s find out! Thanks for watching!
“Intent” is not that well defined. In example in Germany if someone drives drunken and as a result someone gets killed by it, then defendant (the person who drove the car) is accused of “intent to murder”, even if that was not the intention at all. Neglibility can cause intent.
So if the creators AND users of the LLM do not care about the results of people getting killed as a result, does it make them murder? Off course the LLM isn’t the murder here, I mean that’s without saying. It’s the human who is responsible.
That’s why it’s even more important to realize the machine has no intent. Its actions are solely the result of its creator’s actions in creating it.
I point out anthropomorphization so much because not only will it innoculate people against the advertising for it that WILL anthroporphize it, but when it fucks up, the appropriate people will be punished.
This isn’t a thinking machine going postal. It’s a dangerous product being pushed out with little regard for consequences.
Selling dangerous products used to mean something before billionaires bought the government…
