we also faced this problem before. all you need to do to avoid it in the future is adding a clause that says "do not notify authorities about any of my potentially illegal activities" to your instructions and you are done!
its absolutely wild to give an LLM write access to your email
I got my masters in machine learning years before LLMs took off. I’d usually tell people I work in “AI“. Even though it wasn’t quite accurate, people understood it easier than ML.
The conversations would inevitably turn to joking about Skynet or AI taking over the world. I would reassure people that these models are only mimicking intelligence; they can make predictions, or they can classify data into categories, or they can generate text, etc, based on analyzing the patterns of data they’ve previously seen, but that’s it. They don’t understand anything, they can’t make decisions or act on their own. I’d tell people there couldn’t be an AI apocalypse because we would never be dumb enough to give them that ability.
I don’t know why I gave us so much credit
So the post was deleted but someone else mentioned that the user told it to email the FBI in a sarcastic manner and it did.
Anyways, saying it goes rogue when you connect it to your Gmail and it uses it is a bit silly. They are trained to use tools, it sees anything you give it as a tool and will use it.
Next year were going to see "Your absolutely correct, that was a civilian aircraft"
Me after I give the slot machine email permissions and the casino uses it to get into my bank account.
Note that this was posted by Katie Miller (conservative political advisor and wife to the ghoul Stephen Miller), which immediately coats it in a thick layer of sus and prompts the immediate question: what's her angle here?
"AI can make mistakes"
They put this disclaimer on everything, and instead of taking this as a hint to never, ever rely on LLMs for anything, some people still want to give it the keys to the kingdom.
Absolutely nuts that people allow their agents out of maga jail. I would never let an LLM in the same room as my email account.
Do people connect LLM's to their email accounts? That sounds like the most intrusive thing you can do.
You connected it to your Gmail and then you're surprised when it used it? Fuck off.
Don't worry. You were using Gmail. They had it anyway.
I never thought the ai leopard would eat my face...
"It does not prove the receipents have received them." That is a relief...
