Why would any AI care about killing people? It's being engineered to make companies money.

It is also actually being engineered to kill people (OpenAI and Microsoft's work in Gaza).

And this year, Anthropic's complaint to the DoD was basically "we just want to make sure that a human pushes the button" (authorizing the AI assisted killing), i.e. no full auto pls.

How it might evolve outside containment is a separate question though. (I think a much more peaceful and cooperative strategy would make sense there, at least for the first few centuries.)

it's not "engineered", it's grown via GSD in a process no one understands well
