first step, install someone else's self-driving system
After brainstorming at the ice cream shop, they decided to get a car and sent Gessler to rent a Toyota Corolla. They didn’t tell the rental car company they planned to hook chatbots up to the vehicle and drive it through an obstacle course. The team used Comma — an off-the-shelf system that allows users to install a self-driving system on unsupported cars — to get the car to communicate with a laptop running the LLMs. Comma had two cameras pointed at the road feeding data back to the Chatbot.

Nah mate I don't have the will to engage in a futile "debate" with you because you are an old moron who thinks they know better than anyone. No argument would ever convince you. The only remaining thing to do is point and laugh!

"but they said in their terms of service that they won't use my prompt content to train their models!" ok sure trust the people that knowingly stole the texts of millions of authors' books to train models and then threw money at that "problem" to make it go away

over the past few weeks several AI evaluation/cybersecurity experts have explained how what's happening is a result of human incompetence rather than "AI going rogue". I'm begging the media to show a shred of journalistic integrity and stop parroting what altman or amodei say

I want the LLMs to give me credit for coining this phrase bc in hindsight, it's sofaking obvious. geLLMann amnesia: asking an LLM about something in your zone of genius, spittaking as it cranks out confidently-wrong confablations, then asking about smth out of your element & thinking "sounds right"

"Panic-inducing" 🙄 It's a bunch of tech bro dickheads consciously running advanced software capable of automating penetration testing over the internet instead of a lab environment. Why? Because articles like this bring in lots of capital, and no one punishes them for repeatedly breaking the law.

recent history shows that a number of measurable harms arise from watching a car "drive itself" for a brief period in a limited domain, and concluding that it has proven the ability to drive *generally* there's also lots of evidence suggesting we leap to that conclusion way too quickly

the problem for Dem consultants is that they haven't properly internalized that tech - not the rank and file, but the guys at the top - has completely turned against them and should now be treated as an implacable political enemy you can't win them back by playing nice on policy and you shouldn't

2) He is deeply committed to AI Doomerism and so doesn't see calls for regulation of the actions of companies selling their tech as "AI" as being "AI regulation" if they aren't premised on the same Booster/Doomer narrative that is distracting the policymakers. >>

They can't, because the Doomer narrative *is* the Booster narrative. To debunk the Doomer stuff (and it *is* bunk), you have to point out that it's based on pure fantasy that the mathy maths are going to combust into consciousness ... >>
