I mean AI targeted a school and killed hundreds of little kids with a precision missile already, so yeah.
AI doesn't do things. People use AI to do things.
I mean when you tell it to choose targets and five it the ability to shoot missiles. Tomatoes tomato.
This is equivalent to saying 'guns don't kill people, people kill people' which is a way of implying you shouldn't regulate the tool. The tool matters, and how its positioned and what it's given access to do matters.
Sure but saying "AI killed kids" omits the people who are actually responsible. A person asked AI, a person gave the order, a person pulled the trigger. That's what we should be focusing on.
A person didn't ask it to kill kids they told ir to choose targets it choose school a school. I wonder how much over site it has they are saying AI choose the targets.
