#paperclip problem

vidéo extrêmement intéressante et bien sourcée sur les IA, l'état de la recherche sur elles et les problèmes (potentiellement cataclysmiques) qu'elles posent, je vous la recommande :

the taste of metal still on my lips like traces of your forbidden smile if none of this was real i impose upon you tell me, darling would you destroy everything, everything in the world for me? for i destroyed myself, darling for that nostalgic taste of steel and if this love was artifical all along the paperclip problem cannot riddle you senseless can it, my darling machine?

@dreamdancerdotfile I had a thought about alternat universe version of A.E.G.I.S that I thought you might find interesting.

There is this thing called the AI Paperclip Problem. Basically, an AI is tasked with making as many paperclips as it can; as quickly and effectively as possible. The AI goes on to use ALL of Earth’s resources – including humans – and turns them into paperclips because that’s what its programming says it should do.

We know that the multiverse is a thing in the Portal universe. This means that there are universes where GLaDOS failed to kill everyone. In one or more of them, A.E.G.I.S probably went on to decide that the best way to keep the Aperture employees safe was to put them all into perpetual suspended animation. In the universes where he succeeds, all Aperture employees are ‘safe’ forever. They don’t get to live so they are safe from death.

universal paperclips is so addicting for no reason

Been playing stellaris modded to hell and back, trying to find a good strategy for this framework origin where you have a single colony called a frame world you expand with asteroids and buff with planetary outposts. I tried just neutral machines at first but I got kinda bullied and by the time I was standing for my self I was way behind. Now I'm using exterminators from the start >:)

My ultimate goal is to get a specific tech that let's me disassemble planets, it's main purpose is to print planet sized warships but I can use it to expand the frame and the concept of devouring hundreds of worlds for adding to a nigh lovecraftian lattice of industry/research/every process of advanced civilization balled into one is just euphoric.
