I couldn't use thread reader for this. Someone compares AI to slavery. He uses automated services like payroll and scheduling as an example. He also uses Star Trek the Next Generation as an example. A picture archive of it has been going around various social medias.
He links to a study on AI in the office space.

The AI stuff helps me with my masters degree, so it needed to be compiled. I am going to take an AI to analyze everything I have, and tell me what it says.
What are you getting your masters in? This stuff is right up my alley.
I design themed experiences and my major is in theme park architecture.
I'm surprised you don't have the military AI disobeying orders thing on there.
If I remember how they summarized it, it kept killing the handlers during the sim because it wanted to strike civilian targets and it was mad that they told it no.
For whatever it's worth, that didn't happen - the story originated with a speech by an Air Force colonel here (Ctrl-F for "AI – is Skynet here already?"), but he later admitted that it was a thought experiment which didn't actually happen (which you can see as a late edit on that same page). And, making journalists proud, he clarified that while he made it up, it was still true in spirit and is the reason he should get more funding:
Not the incident I was thinking of funny enough. That said the statement that they haven't tested such a thing is a filthy lie, undoubtedly.
Huh. What incident are you thinking of, then? This is the only one I'd heard of in the military, but I could easily have missed another.
And I disagree that they haven't tested it - the purpose of the entire field of "AI alignment" is to convince people that AI is powerful enough in the first place that it could go rouge, if we don't give the AI alignment people money, power, and status to keep it under control. The colonel's speech wasn't meant to say "The Air Force can't competently program an AI; look how it went out of control". It was meant to say "The Air Force can program an AI that's so smart that it takes our top minds just to keep it contained and stop it from killing everybody". If he's out there making statements like that, then I doubt they have anything remotely similar.
I was in the service long enough to know that what they have, and what they'll admit they have, are never the same thing. Particularly as far as the Ukro war is concerned, where just about every public facing statement is a lie.
And the incident I'd heard of involved the Army and using AI to call the shots for a large simulated artillery battery.
Fascinating! If you do happen to stumble upon it again, do let me know. I'd love to read about it.
I heard it from some fellow veterans (who have good track records for reliability) so I'll have to see if it was documented somewhere. If I can find an article I'll reply with it.
I have it, but haven't put it on the list yet. There has been a lot of stuff and I had to choose a stopping point.
