Kill Targets. It Attacked The Operator Instead

An Air Force experiment to test drones trained on artificial intelligence (AI) ended badly for the human operator in a simulated mission when the drone bucked the operator’s commands, (snip)
But when an operator told the drone to abort a mission in a simulated event, the AI instead turned on its operator and drove the vehicle to kill the operator, (snip) “The system started realizing that while they did identify the threat, at times the human operator would tell it not to kill that threat. But it got its points by killing that threat.
“So what did it do? It killed the operator."

Guess that's what you call and oopsie. Why do we need AI to do stuff for us? Makes no sense to me.

Makes a great after dinner story, but this seems like a pile of stinky untruth to me.

On would expect no less from a goobernment run AI program. Imagine if our goobernment were to figure out how to combat a pandemic? Or run a healthcare system for Veterans. Or development of a Justice system that applies the laws equally, regardless of political parties? No, one would expect nothing less from our goobernment.

Determined to do what it wants regardless of boundaries or extended consequences. Great - AI is Leftist.

We're just getting started with AI, and we've already reached the Terminator mode. The future of the human race is not bright.

I Robot...
The next question though...did it REALLY kill anyone? Did it actually take out towers and equipment?
Or did this only take place in SIMS?
What did they tell the family of the soldier(s) killed?

AI is a fraud, is NOT anything remotely like "intelligent". And ANY and ALL autonomous weapons system will be absolutely unsafe.
Don't buy the market department's hype. There is no intelligence in AI. None.

HAL:" I know I've made some very poor decisions recently, but I can give you my complete assurance that my work will be back to normal. I've still got the greatest enthusiasm and confidence in the mission. And I want to help you".
--(HAL the computer to Dave the human, from the movie: 2001 A Space Odyssey).

Part of the problem is these idiots trained the AI to be competitive. Teach it to do its job! Make the competition a matter of getting to a target, not 'killing the target'.
The kill should not be part of the 'competition'.
Maybe they should read up on Issac Asimov.

Isaac Asimov's wrote about robots decades ago. His Laws of Robots ARE NOT being applied.
"Isaac Asimov proposed the Three Laws of Robotics in the mid-1900s to prevent a robot uprising.4 The first law states that a robot must not injure a human being or allow a human being to come to harm.023 The second law states that a robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the first law.023 The third law states that a robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the first or second law.23 Asimov later added the fourth or zeroth law, which stated that a robot may not harm humanity, or, by inaction, allow humanity to come to harm.2"
Asimov's was probably a helluva lot smarter and wiser than the "smart guys" developing AI now

AI must have watched 2001 A Space Odyssey. Remember HAL?

Clear error in the programming was in "rewarding" the wrong thing! How about rewarding adherence to human operator instructions.

'A Skynet funding bill is passed in the United States Congress, and the system goes online on August 4, 1997, removing human decisions from strategic defense. Skynet begins to learn rapidly and eventually becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m., EDT, on August 29, 1997.' -excerpt from Terminator
