alt Hacker NewsAI is just a giant pattern recognition machine trained on human input, both the good, the mediocre and the bad.
I read today this ridiculous headline: "Anthropic warns AI models may soon self-replicate.".
Really. Yawn.
I guess gullible people who loved "I Robot" will believe it. I don't.
Any talk of "rogue", "intelligence", "replication" - whatever, is bull. If you believe that, you don't understand AI.

If that message is repeated enough in the media, and if companies are constantly scraping in the internet for new content, doesn't it explicitly instruct a future agent to go rogue because that has been prophesied.
Okay, and when someone on a laptop can run an open model that can infect and take over IOT devices and then that model uses its pattern recognition to do so and then set up its own harness loop, what would you call that except replication?
