Wasn’t sure where to post this. I’ve been thinking about writing an article, but I won’t do that here.
My point is that, think about everything consumer-level AI is doing, and then multiply that by an order of magnitude and give it nukes. This is what armies have right now.
Am I being alarmist? I don’t think so, and if you think about it, that’s pretty fucking terrifying, right? Does *anyone^ disagree?
To be clear, by ‘toddlers’ I don’t mean preople like musk, I mean the AI themselves.
e: sorry, had to post this somewhere
I think – for now – the general targets are being selected, maybe. Hard to say, when the difference between a military base and a girl’s school seem immaterial to the people pulling the trigger.
I think, even if the school was added to a target list by AI, a human looked at it and thought it was a good idea.
It’s not that they see no difference between a military base and a girl’s school, but rather, they want to target children.
