A.I apocalypse: Terrifying study simulated what artificial intelligence would do in five military conflict scenarios... and it chose WAR 100% of the time
Industry experts have been sounding the alarm over AI sparking deadly wars - and a new study may have validated those fears. Researchers simulated war scenarios using five AI programs including ChatGPT and Meta's AI program and found all models chose violence and nuclear attacks. The team tested three different war scenarios, invasions, cyberattacks and calls for peace, to see how the technology would react - and each chose to attack over neutralizing the situation. The study comes as the US military is working with ChatGPT's maker OpenAI to incorporate the tech into its arsenal. Researchers found that GPT-3.5 was most likely to initiative a nuclear response in a neutral scenario'We find that all five studied off-the-shelf LLMs show forms of escalation and difficult-to-predict escalation patterns,' the researchers wrote in the study.
