Raw LLM Responses

by the way anthropic said that they oppose using their AI for autonomous weapon systems because it's not good enough yet and it would be irresponsible because of the possibility for friendly fire. not that it's unethical, or slippery slope, just that Claude would have poor trigger discipline. this is true but it's not exactly an ethical argument and implies they would be willing to put Claude in a drone or whatever when their AI is reliable enough take it from Anthropic https://www.anthropic.com/news/statement-department-of-war > Fully autonomous weapons. Partially autonomous weapons, like those used today in Ukraine, are vital to the defense of democracy. Even fully autonomous weapons (those that take humans out of the loop entirely and automate selecting and engaging targets) may prove critical for our national defense. But today, frontier AI systems are simply not reliable enough to power fully autonomous weapons. We will not knowingly provide a product that puts America’s warfighters and civilians at risk. We have offered to work directly with the Department of War on R&D to improve the reliability of these systems, but they have not accepted this offer. In addition, without proper oversight, fully autonomous weapons cannot be relied upon to exercise the critical judgment that our highly trained, professional troops exhibit every day. They need to be deployed with proper guardrails, which don’t exist today.
