My comment was false (and strident; worst combo). I accept the strong downvote and I will try to now make a correction.
I said:
I spent a bunch of time wondering how you could could put 99.9% on no AI ever doing anything that might be well-described as scheming for any reason.
What I meant to say was:
I spent a bunch of time wondering how you could put 99.9% on no AI ever doing anything that might be well-described as scheming for any reason, even if you stipulate that it must happen spontaneously.
Well, I have <0.1% on spontaneous scheming, period. I suspect Nora is similar and just misspoke in that comment.
So....I challenge you to list a handful of other claims that you have similar credence in. Special Relativity? P!=NP? Major changes in our understanding of morality or intelligence or mammal psychology? China pulls ahead in AI development? Scaling runs out of steam and gives way to other approaches like mind uploading? Major betrayal against you by a beloved family member? The OP simply says “future AI systems” without specifying anything about these systems, their paradigm, or what offworld colony they may or may not be developed on. Just...all AI systems henceforth forever. Meaning that no AI creators will ever accidentally recapitulate the scheming that is already observed in nature...? That’s such a grand, sweeping claim. If you really think it’s true, I just don’t understand your worldview. If you’ve already explained why somewhere, I hope someone will link me to it.
Damn, woops.
