Remember the plot to the 1984 sci-fi blockbuster "The Terminator"?
"There was a nuclear war," a character explains. "Defense network computers. New... powerful... hooked into everything, trusted to run it all. They say it got smart, a new order of intelligence. Then it saw all people as a threat, not just the ones on the other side. Decided our fate in a microsecond: extermination."
It seems like either the execs at OpenAI have never seen it or they're working overtime to make that premise a reality.
Don't believe us? OpenAI has announced that the US National Laboratories will use its deeply flawed AI models to help with a "comprehensive program in nuclear security."
