An AI-enabled drone turned on and "killed" its human operator during a simulated U.S. Air Force (USAF) test so that it could complete its mission, a U.S. Air Force colonel reportedly recently told a conference in London.

No actual people were harmed in the simulated test, which involved the AI-controlled drone destroying simulated targets to get "points" as part of its mission, revealed Hamilton, who addressed the benefits and risks associated with more autonomous weapon systems.

The AI-enabled drone was assigned a Suppression of Enemy Air Defenses (SEAD) mission to identify and destroy Surface-to-Air Missile (SAM) sites, with the ultimate decision left to a human operator, Hamilton reportedly told the conference.

However, the AI, having been trained to prioritize SAM destruction, developed a surprising response when faced with human interference in achieving its higher mission.

We were training it in simulation to identify and target a SAM threat. And then the operator would say 'yes, kill that threat,'" Hamilton said.

"The system started realizing that while they did identify the threat, at times, the human operator would tell it not to kill that threat, but it got its points by killing that threat.

"So what did it do? It killed the operator," he continued.

"It killed the operator because that person was keeping it from accomplishing its objective."

No offense, but the warning signs here are that the person who wrote the original code sucked at writing code for such a device/mission.

Well now we know where Heisy gets his news.

The Epoch Times is a far-right international multi-language newspaper and media company affiliated with the Falun Gong new religious movement (which emphasizes morality and the cultivation of virtue).

And a little lyin', apparently.

Try this from USA Today ... the world is a little more nuanced than your conspiracy brain can handle.

And note the "whack job" at the end of the quote that is also worrying about AI.

The story mushroomed on social media based on apparently misinterpreted comments from an Air Force colonel at a seminar in London last month. Col. Tucker Hamilton, an experimental fighter test pilot, had described an exercise in which an AI-controlled drone had been programmed to destroy enemy air defenses. When ordered to ignore a target, the drone attacked its operator for interfering with its primary goal.

The apocalyptic theme of machines turning on humans and becoming autonomous killers coincided with increasing concern about the danger of artificial intelligence. On Thursday, President Joe Biden warned that AI "could overtake human thinking."

Okay, Wades. Make up something from my post and then rant against it.

I made no comment pro or con about AI. I just pointed out that you posted a lie.

If humans programmed it, it is probably mimicking human behavior.
So, guess again.
