It's probably just because my family's in the fishing industry that I know the secrets of the sea: for instance, boats go on the water and lighthouses go on land, and they should generally not be in the same place at the same time.
@ArchiteuthisFlux If they are then mistakes have been made somewhere.

@adistuder Ah, now I understand why we don't let bugs drive boats in foggy conditions.

@ArchiteuthisFlux It's like... maybe lighthouses are warning them of something.... it's actually an amazing summation of the current state of AI thinking

@ArchiteuthisFlux I was in a company with a morale problem, and the HR team's response was to cover the walls with posters telling us "Be a lighthouse!" and stop complaining all the time.
I read a letter to the editor once where the writer was complaining about the "deer crossing" signs on the highway, and wanted them moved away from where she lived because there were too many deer on the road.
In tech school, these would have been marked "GCE" - gross conceptual errors.

"Canadian coastguard, this is the US Navy, we are on a collision course. Adjust your bearing 10 degrees south.""Nope."
"We say again, collision course, change your bearing."
"Nope."
"Canadian coastguard, we are an aircraft carrier with a support fleet of two destroyers, three cruisers, a small flotilla of support craft and a classified number of submarines. If you do not change your bearing we will take appropriate action."
"We're a lighthouse. Your call."

@ArchiteuthisFlux oh bröther, I know exactly what a lighthouse is

@KatLS I read that as "sadly tacks" and thought that was the most brilliant sailing-themed play on this

@ArchiteuthisFlux responding to a lighthouse is not a bad metaphor for intelligence though, because it actually involves:
(a) observation—what is this lighthouse's pattern?
(b) measurement—what bearing is it...
(c) self-knowledge—...relative to my heading?
(d) external information—where is it on the chart?
(e) correlation—conclude where i am along a line
(f) prediction—where i will be after a period of time
(g) decision-making—is that where i want to be?
(h) action—course correct as needed. -

@ArchiteuthisFlux Didn't pretty much any video game against an AI have this property where you have a goal state and you attempt to reach that goal state considering variable user input?
You know, like wind?
Why do they think this is so profound lol
We are regressing. -

They weren't serious, were they? This is just too stupid.Also I've to steal this for LinkedIn, where the main audience of people that need to see this currently is.

We know that the AI systems serve the company that created them and so they will mindlessly direct their defenseless crew towards warnings

@ArchiteuthisFlux Yeah, but if their goal is to crash into the rocks, they are nailing it.

@ArchiteuthisFlux That's what I love about mastodon: these deep insights from domain experts that you can't get anywhere else.
