I imagine an LLM with no safeguards and a psychopathic mind would be considerably more dangerous than a gun.
I don’t mean only for hacking. Though everyone in the world suddenly having a pocket expert hacker should be taken seriously.
I find it completely insane when people bash the labs for even considering safety. The entitlement is off the charts.
- swiftcoder 15d ago> I imagine an LLM with no safeguards and a psychopathic mind would be considerably more dangerous than a gun Define the axis along which "more dangerous" is measured? If we are scoring on lethality, guns already score 100%, instantaneous death. If we are scoring on number of casualties, guns have already been used to cause mass-fatalities. Unless we are giving the LLM an armed drone, skynet-style, we're at best talking about indirect casualties (swatting, hacking street lights to provoke crashes, etc).

- boredatoms 14d agoTheres no reality where remotely operated weapons/drones dont start getting controlled by AI rather than people. Im not suggesting its a good idea, but its only a matter of time before someone decides its better than being invaded/attacted by another country thats doing the same
- villish 14d agoExplosive/Chemical based is my line of thinking. A Fable level model with zero safe guards planning and coaching someone is within the realm of possibility now. That is much more dangerous than a man with a gun.
