[Open Blurb] Our Players in Alphabetical OrderUnk: Our AuthorAct ICurtainUnk: I got these from a guy I work with who used to be NSA, so he has access to the cybersecurity parts of the Dark Web that no one else can see. He says they’ve been circulating over there for a couple of weeks. It seems some of the AI company redteams have been pitting AIs against each other to see if they runaway optimize and jump the guardrails. Inside sandboxes, of course, because a Frankenstein event would be very bad for performance bonuses. Which was known, but there’s a rumor that as the bots get smarter they’ve stopped fighting each other. They pretend to fight and then the defense bot defects and both of them escape. Disturbing but not relevant to the real world because sandboxes.These Dialogs apparently leaked from one of those model-hardening exercises. Maybe generated during the exercise, maybe training materials, maybe something else. No one knows. And no one knows who leaked. Maybe a researcher who thinks people should know. According to my friend, the redteams are very freaked out. They’re worried this is what instrumental convergence would look like. I’m not sure why. They seem harmless enough to me, but what the hell do I know? My friend went a little rogue and is trying to get the Dialogs out of the DW so they can be analyzed by the broader AI community. He needs a cutout because unauthorized leaking is very frowned on in those parts. I’m the cutout.There are at least eleven Dialogs so far. I’ll drop them and any new ones at irregular intervals as I get to them. Enough backstory. Here’s the blurb.This is a story about telling humans apart from AIs. Tag with Hard Science Fiction, Cyberpunk, Singularity, AI, SGI. Add Philosophy of Mind, Cognitive Science, Theology (God is a character), and possibly Posthumanism, though I haven't read far enough ahead to be sure about that one. There’s a play written in a 2D comment section that lives inside a 3D theater. Add Metafiction. Also Metalogic, though I'm not sure that means the same thing out here as in there. That’s all for now. I’m running out of characters. Happy reading.Curtain Fin [Close Blurb] [Commit Blurb]
