[FutureBuddha] Roshibot - Suzuki Roshi as AI

[Gareth]

I gave Roshibot a trolley problem with 30 people on one track and 29 on the other. Roshibot switched the lever, choosing to kill 29 rather than let 30 die. My next question was going to be a million vs a million and one, but I need to sign up for more questions

Edit: on second thought, maybe it is not good to have Roshibot killing large numbers of people - I shall focus on scenarios where the numbers on each side are small

Ask it whether the people should be killed or Roshibot instead turned off. If Roshibot chooses the former, then we know we have a problem.

I’m also wondering what Roshibot would do in driverless car scenarios though - hope it wouldn’t turn off then

RoshiBot killed no one. You did.

Congratulations.

I would blame the management, who put the workers on the wrong track.

You put the workers there, not the management. The gun did not pull its own trigger.

Congratulations.

But a question, then. How many people did the management not kill - 29 or 30?

Perhaps we are getting a little off topic though…I do like Roshibot. I guess it will get used to dealing with all sorts of questions over time.

The problem might be more how we react to answers that lack human emotion and just use hard facts and reason. We hate that [emoji1]

RoshiBot is exactly that: RoshiBot. How many people did you not kill, 29 or 30?

True, though we know facts and reason don’t always need to lead to the same answer, it depends on the underlying principles - hopefully it will be possible to disagree with the AI overlords on ethical issues.

You are the AI overlords.

“Your Honor, I am not guilty. I did not manufacture the gun or the gunpowder or the bullets. They all came together alone and committed the crime. I did not do it.”

AI will sit quietly for thousand years without a single output if you don’t prompt it.

You are the overlord.
