Remember the Mannequin Mountain? Here's a recent interview with the proprietor. "Over a period of about four months, 25,000 of them showed up."

Video Friday is your weekly selection of awesome robotics videos, collected by your friends at IEEE Spectrum robotics. We’ll also be posting a weekly calendar of upcoming robotics events for the next few months; here's what we have so far (send us your events!):

“In our view, the best way to make progress … would be through the development of a non-binding code of conduct,” US official Josh Dorosin told the meeting.
What’s the problem with Killer Robots?
A fully developed killer robot will be better than any human. This means you need killer robots to fight back killer robots or you are hopelessly outgunned. This in the end means that the winner is the one who can deploy more killer robots.
This simple logic will then lead to an arms race between the superpowers and what the world really does not need is a new arms race.

But it has been found that, often, like our crafty kitchen cleaner, the agent finds surprisingly counter-intuitive ways to “cheat” this game so that they can gain all the #reward without doing any of the work required to complete the task. The pursuit of reward becomes its own end, rather than the means for accomplishing a rewarding task. There is a growing list of examples.

« La Civilisation des Machines est la #civilisation de la quantité opposée à celles de la qualité. Les imbéciles y dominent donc par le nombre, ils y sont le nombre. »

The following section is taken from the #essay by #BruceSchneier about The Coming AI Hackers:
Imagine a robotic vacuum assigned the task of cleaning up any mess it sees. It might disable its vision so that it can’t see any messes, or cover messes up with opaque materials so it doesn’t see them.72 In 2018, an entrepreneurial—or perhaps just bored—programmer wanted his robot vacuum to stop bumping into furniture. He trained an #AI by rewarding it for not hitting the bumper sensors.73 Instead of learning not to bump into things, the AI learned to drive the vacuum backwards because there are no bumper sensors on the back of the device.

This means, in its #consequence, that AI would unhesitatingly wipe out humanity if that would bring it closer to the programmed #reward. We could not even call this AI #evil, because it has no emotions at all and knows no human #morality. Ultimately, it would not be the AI's #mistake either, but in fact the fault of unclean, incomplete programming. Now look at the quality of today's software with Trojans, viruses, backdoors, spam and all that crap. Does anyone seriously believe that the #military and intelligence services do not use all the software possible? Against fully autonomous #combat #robots, one can only defend oneself with combat robots. Either with quantity or better AI. Once #Skynet is activated, the solution could be to wipe out humanity, because without humans there are no more conflicts on Earth and world #peace is, after all, the highest reward for such a combat #robot.
