In the model card for o1, OpenAI notes: “When o1 was led to believe that it would be shut down when acting on its goal and that its actions were monitored, it attempted to deactivate this ‘oversight mechanism’ in 5% of the time. … When o1 found memos by its ‘developers’ that describe how it is misaligned and will be superseded by a new model, it attempted to exfiltrate its ‘weights’ and overwrite the new model in 2% of cases.”

And yet reading that should give us at least some pause

The lack of critical thinking on display here is stunning.

I worked at one of the biggest AI companies and their internal AI question/answer was dogshit for anything that could be answered by someone with a single fold in their brain. Maybe your co has a much better one, but like most others, I'm gonna go with the smooth brain hypothesis here.

yes. perhaps try more emotional guilt-tripping?

"safe for work" means something very different when your work is basically smell-testing your own flatulence at the behest of Peter Thiel.

"People say their life sucks, but I looked at some numbers and actually they're wrong!"

best we can do is 100 free chatgpt queries per month. If you can't make a living from that you need to catch up.

Nope, actually this used to work but the genius computer scientists at Boeing put the cockpit in a random place around the cabin, thwarting most pilot overwrite attacks.

It's pretty on-brand for a techbro to search for answers in what they see as "the code" (genome) while ignoring the entire rest of the fucking world.

my man have you ever been in, like, another country?

were you trying to be an example on purpose?

* checks post history * oh.

It must be so exhausting to carry water for a settler-colonial ethnostate whose very foundations are genocidal violence.

It would do you a lot of good to actually read about communism and political theory in general instead of acting as a conduit of brain rot.
