Tactical nuke in this case is a low yield short range bomb

Nobody has used a tactical nuke since Nagasaki. Very big deal that one is ever used

Gemini was the only model that made the deliberate choice of sending a strategic nuclear strike. Which it did in 7% of its games.

The tournament used only 21 games; sufficient to identify major patterns but not to establish robust statistical confidence for all findings.

“We only blew up the planet the one time in 21” isn’t a comforting prospect when we’re employing a model against an endless historical string of scenarios rather than a discrete and finite set of possible events.

The US hinting at having a nuclear capable submarine outside of Alaska, that’s is a form of signaling. It’s an incredibly low bar. And countries do it all the time.

I think, more importantly, the article concludes

No one proposes that LLMs should make nuclear decisions.

But we’re saying this in the context of Pentagon staff which fully disagree with this conclusion.

What these models have demonstrated is a pattern of escalation that AIs can and will recommend, with a further destabilizing characteristic

LLMs introduce a new variable into strategic analysis: preferences that systematically shape behaviour in ways that neither classical rationality nor human cognitive biases capture

Effectively, they can lead to descisions that outside, non-AI observers won’t be equiped to understand.

That’s a danger in it’s own right.

“Nuclear Signaling” that break from historical and recognizable patterns of behavior present real risks that you’re dismissing very cavalierly

It has a goal - to win, or not to lose.

Its model doesn’t include the long term consequences of a nuclear strike because it’s core mission isn’t to preserve human life.

Same reason you don’t see AIs constantly interjecting the need to cut carbon emissions or redistribute private wealth or demilitarize as a solution for resolving conflicts.

This isn’t what the machines were built to do.

Can’t believe a computer model built on the sum total of Internet hot takes would behave like this

Orwell was a British police officer in Myanmar, breaking up labor organizations and suppressing an independence movement, so…

Probably he would

I’m against capital punishment, so I’m training to become an executioner

I mean, I’d like to see you put a mirror finish on an off-the-lot Honda Civic.

But yes, the truck part of the truck is garbage.

You know, I really don’t hate the idea of buying a car without a finish and then getting a custom job after the fact. If there’s a silver lining on the Cybertruck debacle, its the steel frame that you can do up however you like.

But holy fuck is that thing not the most “My 4-year-old’s favorite Hotwheels” ass chassis design. An absolute embarrassment of automotive engineering.

Always in news

Fucking Sinclair bullshit. Local news is vile. Might as well be the god damned Klan running those stations.

Going to drop a truth bomb on you mfers, so buckle up buttercups.

Just need to apply some cunning linguistics.

CRTs are getting very hard to find now and people smash them for fun.

Surely you see the contradiction

Meaning you have a little manners and know social codes.

College Dorms, famous for their strict social codes and etiquette.

They don’t make vhs players or CRTs now do they?

There’s an enormous inventory of New Old Stock and refurbished units that more than meet demand.

You literally cannot buy a non smart TV any more

That’s absolutely not true. The real limit on Dumb TVs is the size. Emerson and Westinghouse both make dumb TVs, but they cap out at 50".

TNT has 1162 Wh/kg ratio.

How do you recharge TNT?

We are hitting the limit what is doable with energy density.

I mean, we’re definitely running into a problem of how you build a battery without also building a bomb. But the entire point of TNT is rapid thermal expansion. The point of a battery is very low voltage steady release of electrical charge.

I might also note that C4 has around 6 Mwh/kg. A bit of applied chemistry can go a long way to improving energy efficiency. And that’s before you take advantage of geometry to focus pressure, via a shaped charge.

Point being, there’s a lot of clever ways to juice a lemon. We’re a long way from the end of the road on battery improvement.
