Generative AI chooses violence in wargame sim: ‘we have nukes, let’s use it!’
A new scientific study has revealed concerning behaviors from generative AI chatbots placed in simulated military wargame scenarios.
Says Edward Geist of the RAND Corporation think tank, “These large language models are not a panacea for military problems.” More comparative testing against human players may clarify the risks posed by increasingly autonomous AI systems. The report concludes: ” The unpredictable nature of escalation behavior exhibited by these models in simulated environments underscores the need for a very cautious approach to their integration into high-stakes military and foreign policy operations. A seasoned technology writer and content strategist, he has contributed to many UK regional and national publications including The Scotsman, inews.co.uk, nationalworld.com, Edinburgh Evening News, The Daily Record and more.
