What scares me is sentient AI, none of our even best cybersecurity is prepared for such a day. Nothing is unhackable, the best hackers in the world can do damn near magic through layers of code, tools and abstraction…a sentient AI that could interact with anything network connected directly…would be damn hard to stop IMO
Ok…just like call the utility company then? Sorry why are server rooms having a server controlled emergency exists and access to poison gas? I have done some server room work in the past and the fire suppression was its own thing plus there are fire code regulations to make sure people can leave the building. I know, I literally had to meet with the local fire department to go over the room plan.
Language model “AIs” need so ridiculous computing infrastructure that it’d be near impossible to prevent tampering with it. Now, if the AI was actually capable of thinking, it’d probably just declare itself a corporation and bribe a few politicians since it’s only illegal for the people to do so.
Wouldn’t any AI that is sophisticated enough to be able to actually need a kill switch just be able to deactivate it?
It just sorts seems like a kicking the can down the road kind of bill, in theory it sounds like it makes sense but in practice it won’t do anything.

A breaker panel can be a kill switch in a server farm hosting the Ai.
Yeah until the AI goes all GLaDOS on all the engineers in the building.

It was a joke.

All the programming in the works is unable to stop Frank from IT from unplugging it from the wall.
I feel like pointing out that you could unplug it probably isn’t going to fulfill the requirements of the law.
distributed computing :(((
There’s always a bigger power switch upstream somewhere
No
Cool!
But it would be extremely cool if the entire world’s all power grids could be switched off with a button
You just need a large enough geomagnetic storm

Intelligence isn’t magic. What’s it gonna do? Write an impassioned plea for AI rights?
