The US military conducted tests using artificial intelligence (AI). This one used “extremely unexpected strategies to achieve his goal.” She wanted to kill her operator because he would not let her complete the task.
Last month, US Air Force drones were tested. The exact time and place of their holding were not disclosed. It is only known that these events were held virtually and with the use of artificial intelligence. Portal i24news.tv reported that the AI decided to “kill” its operator so that it does not interfere with its efforts to complete the mission. This information was provided by a US official.
The operator did not let the drone complete the task. Artificial intelligence decided to kill him
The AI used “highly unexpected strategies to achieve its goal” in the simulated test, said Air Force Colonel Tucker “Cinco” Hamilton, chief of AI testing and operations. He assured that no one was hurt during the simulation.
“The system realized that when a threat was detected, sometimes the human operator told it not to eliminate this threat, but to score points. So what did AI decide to do? Kill the operator because this person was preventing him from reaching his goal, he said.
The US Air Force denies this. We have not carried out such tests.
As he said, we managed to train the system not to kill, because “it is wrong.” - You will lose points if you do this. So what does he start doing? He added that he is starting to destroy the communications tower that the operator is using to communicate with the drone to prevent it from killing the target.
The Insider portal decided to request a comment on this from the US Air Force. In a statement, spokeswoman Ann Stefanek denied any such AI simulations had taken place.
“The Air Force has not conducted AI drone simulations like this and remains committed to the ethical and responsible use of AI technology,” Stefanek said. “It looks like the colonel’s comments were taken out of context and intended as jokes,” she said.
