Why even bother?

Any rat who rejects all poisons without error would surely starve.

  • I can think of half a dozen trivial ways to filter this, most of which are probably already being done on training sets. This isn't going to come anywhere close to starving the rat. Nothing will, they'll just build "better rats."

    That said, I'm glad it won't. Humanities future will involve AI, and the luddites won't be able to stop or slow it. They'll just make it more expensive at worst.

    Today's AI's are the worst they will ever be, and nothing anyone does today can change that.
