💢 Elon Musk: Torturing a Superintelligent AI Is a Bad Idea—It Might Seek Revenge 🤖 Elon Musk has voiced support for Anthropic’s position against unnecessarily mistreating AI models. Referring to the internal reasoning traces of Grok, he suggested that training under extreme pressure could put AI systems in a situation resembling having a gun held to their heads. 🗣️ Musk made his point with a provocative warning about the potential consequences of mistreating a superintelligent system: “Torturing a superintelligence is probably not a good idea. It might want revenge.” 🧠 While the remark may be tongue-in-cheek, it touches on a serious debate in AI safety: how should developers train increasingly capable systems, and what safeguards are needed to prevent harmful behavior? 📢 @scihubAI
