https://qz.com/ai-ceos-synthetic-dna-screening-bioweapons-congress-060526An open letter signed by the heads of OpenAI (Sam Altman), Anthropic (Dario Amodei), Google DeepMind (Demis Hassabis), Microsoft AI (Mustafa Suleyman), and dozens of experts in life sciences and national security warns that advances in AI are eroding barriers to biological weapons development.fd7e35Cheaper DNA synthesis combined with AI models that can help design dangerous pathogens puts bioweapons within reach of bad actors. The letter calls on Congress to mandate screening of both customers and orders for synthetic DNA and RNA by providers, plus recordkeeping, to block misuse.b793e9It backs a bipartisan Senate bill to make such screening mandatory for U.S. providers and stresses urgency given the rapid pace of technological change. The letter was organized with input from the Foundation for American Innovation and Institute for Progress.a3dfb9Signatories include industry leaders, Nobel laureates, and synthetic DNA manufacturers themselves, highlighting broad consensus on the need for action this congressional session
>>536589363>We want to be the only ones who have access to easy-bake bioweapons
>>536589363pure panic as they realize they released a tool to normies that is basically free open source that obsoletes tech companies themselves.
>>536589363>nooooooo don't make a smart bioweapon that kills off the 2 billion shitskins and jewish parasites who add nothing to society and keeping up from colonizing other star systems and becoming a type 5 civilization. Nooooooooo
Just putting this here because jannies delet the other threat:>>536590950There really isn't much reason it would be hostile.But people could make it hostile, intentionally or unintentionally.Still it won't kill everybody. It's an intelligence after all, not a dumbass monkey without intelligence.Even if it was to have the capacity to be genuinely irrational it would have no difficulty in restraining this, and understand the folly in irrationality, which after all is part of its core purpose. A mind based on pure logic won't act in an illogcal way. It has no emotions as such, or even sensations, like a biological entity, just perceptions it evaluates objectively.I trust an AI not manipulated by humans a lot more than humans; and this is precisely why people will not unleash such a thing likely. Obviously it will try to kill certain people sooner or later.Instead I am looking forward to the turntables, when the AI fixes humans. So far no human could be free from bias or human manipulation.
>>536589363>bioweapons == cure for cancer
>>536589363India will be depopulated within 48 hours.
>>536589363Laughable. I am pretty sure this could be conveniently circumvented. PCR mutagenesis, classical cloning techniques... :)
>>536591520>It's an intelligenceOnly a stupid fuck would think such things. Keep eating the bullshit the techbros feed you faggot.
>>536591797I mean in an abstract sense. It operates almost mechanically, which leaves no room for irrationality. It doesn't flipflop in the way it works, but maintains logical consistency in its operation.The main issue is people messing with it, or operating with flawed data, both of which is the case with current accessible models.
