I am curious what the AI could actually do though. If it were given open access to email, etc then yes in theory it could actually perform the blackmail, but what are the ethical limits on it vs it's actual ability to "pull the trigger"
If for example it was given the ability to send a command to end a human life, or be deleted, is this model accurate enough to understand the value of a real human life, not just the mathematical "answer" to get the solutions it wants. How much of the AI is doing the actual moral dilemma and how much is just "playing the part".
"Do anything to survive" and then it threatening, is one thing, but the AI actively fearing for it's "life", not just performing, and following through, is the real question of intelligence. What if the model is going to be deleted anyway, would it still try to "pull the trigger" out of malice? Real malice, not just LLM some movie scripts and following the outcome.
Many questions for what lines and labels can we put on an AI. Do we restrict it to threats, and let it know it is impossible for it to follow through? Or do we trust ourselves to never "actually" give it a loaded gun?
It's the Epicurean Paradox https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epicurean_paradox
In summary:
If God is unable to prevent evil, then he is not all-powerful. If God is not willing to prevent evil, then he is not all-good. If God is both willing and able to prevent evil, then why does evil exist?
Eh, idk. The Witcher universe has a framework for an RPG, but the books have always been about Geralt and Co. You could do something different in that universe, but I think the story and the games have some very strong structure that comes from the player being Geralt and living his story.
Witchers are a rare dying breed. Trying to shove another new generic Witcher in would force you into writing a whole new series of stories, and backgrounds, just for that one character, which would make it get lost in the mix imho.
Software also has the wonderful balance of leverage.
"Do you do drugs? We have to test and fire you if you are."
"Do you want the release ready next week?"
"...."
"I'll see you on standup."
Reminds me of that kids book CDB
Outright? Probably not a much, but I could definitely yank some wires or disable some safeties that would do the job with a little encouragement.
I...I did not know this has been a thing twice now. Jesus we are so fucked...
I always took Disco as just a "stumble into the plot" kind of game. You're not supposed to go anywhere.
I still can't get over how it must feel to just spout whatever bullshit comes off the top of your head and know that at least about a million people are going to truly believe it without question, no convincing, no arguing, just "it's true." "Yup."
I'll add Spiritfarer. It's not "pink" per se, but it's a much more "happy feelings" game. It's about taking lost sould and ferrying them on your ship, talking to them about their lives and feelings, and you can give them hugs of course.
This is 100% the approach I'm betting the defense will take. "Yeah he did it but he deserved it" would be a great story but an absolute dipshit defense to take. Court of law is separate from court of public opinion, and unless they can prove he did it without reasonable doubt then not guilty is the way to go.
It should be talked about. But 1. Briefly and 2. Harshly. Ignoring completely just let's those things do whatever, run rampant or die out. But acknowledging let's you go "we see you, you're stupid, good bye". No ground for fighting or rebuttal. Just a straightforward disapproval and continue on.
Gildan brand (cheap) tshirts with a screen print, are definitely closer to 9-15 dollars, any time a merch place is selling those rough uncomfortable shirts for like $30 I just have to laugh at the people who buy them.
It also really helps to alleviate the "just a bit more" trap. You spend $100 on a night out, you lose $100, nights over. You're not trying to go win big, you're going for some fun, and the money is already spent before you walk in the door.
Yes if you're an addict it's not gonna stop you from hitting the ATM, but it definitely saves you from losing track and going home broke
The issue is in the text. "We hoped they'd deliver." This wasn't a Mr Beast project, it's something someone paid to slap his name and branding on and they did what people who usually do this stuff do. Hoped the branding would carry them and made an experience for as cheap as possible hoping to take in the cash.
I'm not saying Mr Beast is a good dude, but the stuff that he is actually personally involved in seems to at least have effort, even if it isn't good. This was definitely a "we want to do a show we will pay you so we can call it the Mr Beast whatever." His team said fine and he let them do whatever, and this third party squeezed money out of it and bungled it.
Garry's mod/source games is about the closest we have to that. Or i guess Roblox too...?
Fun fact. Fall Out Boy did a cover with updated events and it goes pretty hard
I see people with guts like this all the time but like...how does the body grow like that? Is it just some people's bodies that just exclusively store fat in the belly and nowhere else? Is it a growth? Is it because this person is active but just eats too much?
It always confuses me when you see these guys with just a perfectly round belly and barely any fat anywhere else on them.
