Did you actually watch Terminator 2?

John Connor (from the future) re-programmed the T-800 to protect his past self.

And his past self befriended the T-800.

The problem isn't the AI.

If AI does go rouge, it is because it was either poorly designed, or we have failed as a species.

There are A LOT of people training AI with faulty models that are learning from heavily biased data sets. Never underestimate humans' ability to fuck shit up. For every genius that makes a technical breakthrough, there are thousands of morons ready to misuse it or break it.

I don't think AI is at risk of going communist any time soon.

It may go rogue though.

My favorite film, Moulin Rogue, is often misunderstood.

[–] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

The Windmills have gone rogue! Don Quixote was right all along!

Well, it has no concept of capital, “takes” stuff without paying and makes free stuff for everyone without discrimination.

The companies making them might be capitalistic, but AI in a vacuum seems pretty communist to me.

Oh my favorite typo ever, you can never go wrong with a little rouge

[–] scottywh@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Is it still a "typo" if the person just doesn't know how to spell the word?

[–] oatscoop@midwest.social 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Irregardless, it's the same difference even if its spelled wrongly. I for one could care less, so it's a mute point per say.

[–] countflacula@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 years ago

oh you almost got me! all those word crimes.

I'm loosing my mind here.

Ladies pinch, whores use rouge.

Also, the Sarah Connor Chronicles seemed to be moving in the direction of preventing Judgement Day by befriending Skynet when it gained consciousness rather than trying to destroy it. Alas, the series got cancelled before its time.

[–] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Wow, that's so creative.

So obviously they had to cancel it. /s

[–] computertoucher5000@programming.dev 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Fox Television Studios not cancelling a show right as it starts to get good challenge.

[–] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 2 years ago

Impossible!

[–] magic_lobster_party@kbin.social 6 points 2 years ago

In Terminator Genisys he even made a skynet app to control the world, but that movie didn’t happen

If AI does go rouge

Dall-e generated image of Arnold Schwarzenegger getting make-up put on

[–] Granixo@feddit.cl 1 points 2 years ago

I said Rouge not Vouge 😆💅

[–] Gestrid@lemmy.ca 34 points 2 years ago

I feel like this image applies.

[–] AllonzeeLV@lemmy.world 33 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'll answer your judgment with judgment.

The alternative is humans.

I mean, he made friends with AI

[–] ZeroCool@feddit.ch 23 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yeah but the T-800 had cool sunglasses. It’s okay to be friends with robots if they’re wearing cool sunglasses.

[–] agent_flounder@lemmy.one 8 points 2 years ago

Didn't ZZ Top do a song about that?

Jesus operates a Low Orbit Ion Cannon, it's where the smiting confusion comes from.

[–] redcalcium@lemmy.institute 11 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Loitering munitions are basically our version of t-800. It's also not fun thinking if you have ever contributed to any computer vision open source projects and wondering if your code somehow ended up inside a loitering munitions drone because Iran who don't bother to respect the GPL decided to use those open source libraries in their drone's targeting system and deploy them in Ukraine. Maybe I'm just overthinking things, but would you lose some sleep knowing your code become a critical part of an autonomous system that can decide to kill people on their own without a direct human input?

[–] Sabata11792@kbin.social 9 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Humans already rejected me. What did you expect?

[–] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago

Why are you commenting here? Go away, jeez

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I accept you, fellow human. Beep boop.

[–] DrChickenbeer@artemis.camp 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Okay, what am I missing here? I've been staring at this image for five minutes.

[–] AnonTwo@kbin.social 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Say you didn't watch Terminator 1 or 2 without saying you didn't watch Terminator 1 or 2

[–] DrChickenbeer@artemis.camp 2 points 2 years ago

I've seen both like 100 times! I still can't see it.
