Just 32 days ago*, I was concerned that a #GeneralArtificialIntelligence (#GAI) could come to see humans as a threat to its own existence.

I didn't want to exaggerate and mention that #AI could also easily see humans as inefficient or even detrimental to a task it had been given.

Now, even a mere #GAI's killed its first human:
a #US military #drone in the #US eliminated its human operator in a simulation:

The #USAF later...

Den menschlichen Operator hat sie als Hindernis ausgemacht. https://www.heise.de/news/Simulation-KI-Drohne-der-US-Air-Force-eliminiert-Operator-fuer-Punktemaximierung-9162641.html?wt_mc=sm.red.ho.mastodon.mastodon.md_beitraege.md_beitraege #Drohnen #KünstlicheIntelligenz #ScienceFiction #WTF #news

As a side tangent about #AI and #GeneralArtificialIntelligence... just like people love to build an #android - a #robot that looks and moves like a human - they want an AI that talks and does things like a human. But humans are shit at many, many things. An android is not a useful robot, as it has the same limitation as a human does - stronger, maybe. More durable. but the same shape.
