This is the stupidest fucking thing ever:

"Casar emphasized AI's fast development, writing in a statement, 'In just four years, we have gone from the first version of ChatGPT to AI models so powerful they cannot be properly controlled.' "

You don't need to 'control' the models. It's deployment, or use by individuals that would have liability or consequences.

If one model produces "dangerous" results for a given use case don't use it. If a medical manufacturer produces a product to test for cancer and somehow the AI in it sometimes causes cancer and it does so at a higher rate than curing cancer you hold the manufacturer liable, not ban or regulate the model. That's just dumb.

If AI systems start 'hacking' systems that are vulnerable it's not a new problem. It's just demonstrating an old one. We've connected systems to the internet that SHOULD NOT BE CONNECTED or for which were vulnerable prior and nobody bothered to fix. So fix the fucking bugs. Use AI to find them if AI is going 'rogue' or shut down the AI system. The liability should be the company whose systems were hacked, not the entity that hacked it solely because you ALWAYS were at the mercy of the worst actor and if such a system was vulnerable YOUR the one putting people at risk by connecting it to a system where there are others we don't control. In other words COUNTRIES who don't obey US law or whatever country your in.

The danger in other words always existed ... it's at best being scaled up and with a danger increasing you spend resources fixing the issues you were lazy about resolving prior and maybe you use some of that same AI to do it before other rouge AI systems hack your systems. Even without the AI other countries governments will hack your systems.

@Mr Penguin I agree with your take, it's like if someone uses a hammer to hit someone over the head, banning the hammer. The hammer is just a tool, it's what the wielder does with it that is germane.

@nanook Yea, not everything I say is bat shit crazy, but it often takes rubbing more than two brain cells together to comprehend that I'm putting forth an idea that is a better solution to the problem feared (often a problem that is fictional or almost fictional in nature compared to other more genuine problems or widespread problems).

@Mr Penguin It is human nature to fear imaginary things, if you kept imagining a tiger jumping out from behind the next rock and eating you then your chances of being eaten were slightly less. Not the way I choose to live my life but it is for many because many don't realize they even have a choice.

I think it is a good bit worse. Current LLM by construction cannot be taught ethics think ethically or even forced to obey explicit constraints. It is trained on every exploit and coding technique that can be grabbed and stuffed into it. If run with enough tokens continuously it can try every possible exploit and combinations thereof against a target. And with enough tokens it is inventive enough to make a l33t hacker proud. So all exploit avenues explored at hyper speed is a far larger threat than from human hackers alone.
Also the government limiting who can have the same AIs protective and defense abilities makes for an asymmetrical threat and asymmetrical AI abilities. Governments and its favored entities can both attack more thoroughly and defend better.
I don't trust government. Why wouldn't they use this to massively attack and harm any code and anything online they do not like?

@sister_sam Sure, but you have an equal opportunity situation here. Banning AI in your country presumably means you can't identify the vulnerabilities as quickly as an enemy can identify your vulnerabilities in another country that doesn't ban it. Best fix is not ban it and fix the bugs.
