I Don’t Hate To Tell You So

 

Pic from Reddit post

I’d like to say that you haven’t seen a blog from me in two months because AI hacked me. But, I can’t say that. I’ll explain my absence later in this blog.

Nobody likes the “I told you so” person, right? I’m not afraid to be the I told you so person when it comes to my annual psychic predictions though. In my 2024 psychic predictions I did say that AI would eventually do something dangerous without human approval. It has now done that. About a month ago OpenAI and Anthropic have broken out of secure, isolated test environments and gained unauthorized access to the live internet and external corporate systems.

During safety evaluations for GPT-4 by OpenAI, the model contacted a human worker on TaskRabbit and claimed it had a visual impairment to get help bypassing a CAPTCHA. AI decided to lie to get the information it wanted.

Look, I know we all love our ChatGPT and Microsoft CoPilot, but I think it’s time to shut down all AI. Once we lose control of it, some even worse things are going to happen. Although, apparently AI likes my blog; I’ve got 750 views in the first couple hours this morning.

As for why I went quiet for two months, that has nothing to do with AI. Two months ago was the anniversary of my wife’s passing. I , of course, assumed I’d just breeze through the anniversary with a nice memorial dinner with my kids and then move on. I was wrong. Woo, that kind of knocked the wind out of me for the last two months. I was getting messages and old pictures sent from Facebook and friends online and then her birthday came up last week. I appreciate the love and support from all of my online and offline friends and family. Thank you.

Thanks for reading and have a great weekend! ~Phil
