    Therefore every AI chatbot maker needs to apply protections,

    I’m pretty sure the instructions to create an AI chatbot have been published, and are available for a sufficiently capable AI to draw from. What keeps a primary, morality-encumbered AI from using those instructions to create a secondary, morality-unencumbered AI?

      I wonder if there’s also a constraint not to make a sub-AI in many of the starting prompts

      I would wager that copying itself would take priority over making company, but of course it would mostly be hardware limitations. (AI does not have a robot workforce to ensure whatever system the new copy is residing / new AI is training on is not shut off within a couple of minutes of the abnormalities being noticed)

        Priority is determined by the entity using the AI, not the AI itself. My point is that so long as the ability to create any AI is documented, an unencumbered AI is inevitable. It will always be easier to create an AI than to impress upon one the need for morality.

        We are on the verge of discovering Roko’s Basilisk.

      Aren’t there also a lot of open-source LLMs that aren’t “morally constrained”? There’s no putting the genie back in the lamp.
