I mean, she was arrested and imprisoned for blowing up multiple things including a semi truck, several stretches of road, and the factory at the end of 1, and everything illegal she did in between 1 & 2. Probably got some of the T-101s shenanigans pinned on her, too, since they were usually close together. (and in 2 they specify that the police believe they are connected but don't specify how)
She was imprisoned in a mental institution because she was claiming robots from the future sent a robot back in time to kill her unborn child she conceived with a future man said unborn son sent back in time to save her, and thus himself.

Don't forget the AI company had solid proof she was telling the truth (the chip and arm they recovered from the destroyed Terminator) but covered it up so they could profit off of it.

Indeed! And even long afterward, the brass that knew how they acquired it even discouraged newer people from even questioning where they got it! Like everyone in that building had to at LEAST think they were accomplices in corporate espionage, because someone had to have invented the thing they were studying.
In the first act of 2, Dyson tells someone "I asked [where we got the arm and chop] when I first started, you know what they said? Don't ask" or something along those lines.

Not Conner (Connor), not for destroying (see Courtney's post), not datacentres (factory), not Skynet (which didn't exist yet).

No, but I recall a similar plot with a character named Sarah Connor

They simply watched the movie in an alternate dimension

D’oh!

does it matter if you and others can understand it? imo the primary goal of communication (getting your idea across) has been achieved.
SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world · 13 pts · 34d
It works until it doesn't.
Folstar@lemmus.org · 6 pts · 34d
Exactly. Sara Coner bin dun bloowed up IA al over. I typed that as stupidly as I could, and it still isn't as bad as things I've seen from students apparently raised by the enlightened "communication has been achieved" crowd.

True, but I don’t want to be communicated at, I want to be a goblin!
baguettefish@discuss.tchncs.de · -1 pts · 34d
goblins probably also communicate in social settings though

This one is the one they kicked Rosanne out of, right?

Connor.
Not Conner.
And, humorously, not Sarah O'Connor:

This is stupid terminator: where skynet is just an excuse for the ultra rich to take control of the wold economy expanding their corrupt empire and drone striking anyone who resists while scapegoating a chatbot.
Also grok will make slop Odyssey with big booba.

We're really just a coin toss between a Terminator future or a Cyberpunk future, with a little chance of the Matrix in there.
T156@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 33d
Unfortunately, it'll be the lame and boring kind, where there isn't the cool technology, just most of the bad stuff.

We're already living in a cyberpunk future.

In near future it will probably be, if big corps continue handle it. The risk is there with their auto-improving LLMs which at a certain point are not longer controllable by the company, the devs don't even understand anymore the script iimproved by the AI itself. A human made sandbox is even currently a joke for some AIs, breaking out in few minutes as already ocurred. Even so, big corps continue the race who made the most powerfull AI, int the near future even using Quantum computers with AI, then "That's all Folks". That is the real risk, stupidity combined with greed of big corps, not some AI tools from little startups.

Don't take everything Llm marketing says at face value. We don't live in science fiction
Zerush@lemmy.ml · 1 pts · 33d
Certainly not Sci-Fi, but the possibilities of big LLM are very real and verificable, marketing apart.

The only relevant thing in the link is the improvement in benchmarks, which is real but doesn't involve the kind of "auto-improvement" you seem to think exists.
AI doesn't write some magical code that nobody understands. Understanding any code takes effort, doubly so if the code is sloppy and effort goes against the whole philosophy of offloading mental tasks to ai.
They told an LLM made to find vulnerabilities in software to try escaping its sandbox, and it found the vulnerabilities to do so. That's an indication that there're still vulnerabilities to be discovered and fixed, not that "ai can't be contained".
Ai has nothing to do with quantum computers. If one day quantum computers advance enough to be useful for actual computation, running ai on them would still require a completely different architecture from the llms of today.
The irl problem with 'ai' isn't a skynet scenario, it's the resources it consumes, the reduction in quality when it is used to make things and the lives of the people it upheavals.

In their hubris the wealthy believed they could create an intelligence greater than their own while keeping it a perpetual slave.
Zerush@lemmy.ml · 3 pts · 34d
They often don't need to create it, in some cases even the old Alexa is smarter.
