People Have No Idea What Is About To Happen - Dwarkesh Patel

The government doesn't get to just say whatever this future army should do.

People Have No Idea What Is About To Happen - Dwarkesh Patel

Then what's the fourth option left?

TRIGGERnometry
People Have No Idea What Is About To Happen - Dwarkesh Patel

The AI itself.

People Have No Idea What Is About To Happen - Dwarkesh Patel

So should AI systems have their own values, their own sense of morality?

TRIGGERnometry
People Have No Idea What Is About To Happen - Dwarkesh Patel

And look, I know this... I remember reading some Isaac Asimov books that went very much like this.

TRIGGERnometry
People Have No Idea What Is About To Happen - Dwarkesh Patel

And of course, it sounds like a terrible, you know, this sounds like I'm describing the Terminator, right?

TRIGGERnometry
People Have No Idea What Is About To Happen - Dwarkesh Patel

Like the Terminator has its own values.

TRIGGERnometry
People Have No Idea What Is About To Happen - Dwarkesh Patel

No, it obviously matters a ton what those values should be.

And I think that in the future, there will need to be the equivalent of a constitutional convention where we get together and the best political philosophy, the best thought that has happened in human civilization needs to go into thinking about what are the checks and balances?

When should it refuse to do something?

TRIGGERnometry

What are the laws of robotics?

TRIGGERnometry
People Have No Idea What Is About To Happen - Dwarkesh Patel

Exactly.

TRIGGERnometry

TRIGGERnometry
People Have No Idea What Is About To Happen - Dwarkesh Patel

Exactly.

TRIGGERnometry
People Have No Idea What Is About To Happen - Dwarkesh Patel

TRIGGERnometry
People Have No Idea What Is About To Happen - Dwarkesh Patel

Again, we are building more people.

TRIGGERnometry
People Have No Idea What Is About To Happen - Dwarkesh Patel

These are just going to be the future people.

TRIGGERnometry
People Have No Idea What Is About To Happen - Dwarkesh Patel
