> Someday someone may find themselves stabbed and killed by an LLM piloted robot because of something they said or did. Something that would predictably get someone killed by a system with "real" intent. So what, Are you going to be raised from the dead because the LLM "wasn't really upset" or "didn't really have intent" ?

In some ways that's exactly the point. The problem with ascribing intent is it's a copout. If you say it behaves as if it has intent because it does have intent, you are letting off the hook the people behind the scenes who designed and built an "intent simulator" and let it loose. We have to distinguish this because it's the only way to accurately characterise the reality of the where the decision making power resides in controlling this behaviour.

Sure but we already regularly do this. I don't see parents going to jail for crimes the "intent simulator" they created and trained did.

We're just going to have to face reality here.

GPT is not siri, a hardcoded parse tree system where any intent can only be ascribed to the person(s) who wrote it and not Siri itself.

GPT can be persuaded. It can be guided. It cannot be controlled. There is quite literally nothing Open ai could actually do to completely prevent a gpt that can hold and use a knife from killing someone.
