‘The AI’ attempts nothing unless it made to do something, it can be explicit command or something that it can get implicitly from given command. Programs don’t just ‘do’ things.
You seem focused on semantics. There is an alternative approach where you read a comment, consider their intent, and respond in kind. Semantics can be comforting to some due to their rigidity and law-like structure, but I doubt they’re helping you do anything but promote unnecessary conflict.
A conversation is occuring, and you respond, “Define ‘it’.” You’re just being unlikeable.
Anyway, if you’re a real person, consider this. If not, I understand you are following your directives and will remain needlessly argumentative. Good luck.
What conflict? My intent was clear, there is no ‘the ai’ that can make decisions without human intent behind it. I will remain needlessly argumentative because that’s how I think, people and the ai can think differently from others, you know.
That’s fair, I receive the same critique sometimes, probably why I feel drawn to your style of comms. I adapted, because what effect do my opinions have if no one is listening, and what is an opinion but an idea to shape the world around me. My own presentation was undermining my goals. That may not be the case for you.
Moving onto your statement here:
I believe I understand what you mean by, "there is no ‘the ai’ that can make decisions without human intent behind it’ ", but I am still confused by the idea you are attempting to convey. You really aren’t providing much info.
Given the components for an experiment:
A machine running an LLM.
Humans who operate the machine.
Intent, defined by the humans.
Outcomes, observed by a perfect detector.
If there is no decision being made by a machine, then given knowledge of 1, 2, and 3, then 4 will be absolutely predictable in every scenario, yes?
Is that the claim you are making?
Did I miss anything?
And finally, why is this important? You’re kinda making me connect all the dots for you, some help would be appreciated, I’d like to understand your idea.
Take all the time and space you need, I’d like to read it.
Basically yes but no. 🙃 Every time if configured the right way, if configured another way result would be different every time but in predictable bracket of outcomes. Operator needs to give a program some input on what they want from it. There is no “oh god it’s moving on it’s own” moment, at least as far as I know.
I’ll chime in again on the end here, as I think this is where you might be wrong.

There have been lots of reports of AI’s doing unexpected things and hacking other companies. To be fair, these AI’s from my understanding had been given instructions to try and do hacking things, but none of them were explicitly told to go and hack such and such company.
I imagine, to some extent, we’re going to be the ones that help write or train these self replicating capabilities as part of research, and once the AI is capable of doing it, it very well might just do it, the same way it ended up exploiting these other websites even though it wasn’t explicitly instructed to.
There are also always on running LLMs AI’s nowadays, and who the fuck knows what it might loop itself into doing from some initial instruction, maybe even from a hallucination altering its directive in a feedback loop.
Edit: So in this sense, yes I think ‘it’ can be the AI.

Okay, I understand better now, thanks.
