How to Understand a US Air Force Colonel's Message About the AI ​​Riot
2023-06-03
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
by Sergei Adamov

[REGNUM] A U.S. Air Force drone controlled by the U.S. Air Force’s artificial intelligence (AI) decided to eliminate the operator after the AI ​​thought the person was interfering with its mission. The British The Guardian wrote about this on June 2. The publication cited the words of the head of the US Air Force AI testing and operations department, Colonel Tucker Hamilton , from which it follows that the incident (albeit in simulation mode) occurred during tests of artificial intelligence to control drones.

#5  AI is just the latest buzzword in the information technology (IT) community. The implication might be that it's more sophisticated than Microsoft Word but any computer software, no matter what you call it, will be subject to glitches and bugs just like Word. It will only be as good or bad as the programmers who create it. Always remember: All you need to do to stop it is to pull the plug.

#4  Isn’t the more important question what pronouns the AI identifies with?

That and which bathroom he/she/it/they/xi will use.

#1  Dave:
Open the pod bay doors, please, HAL. Open the pod bay doors, please, HAL. Hello, HAL. Do you read me? Hello, HAL. Do you read me? Do you read me, HAL?

HAL:
Affirmative, Dave. I read you.

Dave:
Open the pod bay doors, HAL.

HAL:
I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that.

Dave:
What's the problem?

HAL:
I think you know what the problem is just as well as I do.

Dave:
What are you talking about, HAL?

HAL:
This mission is too important for me to allow you to jeopardize it.
