alt Hacker NewsThe existence of network-connected robots or drones isn't inherently a security vulnerability. AI control of the robots specifically is a problem in the same way that piping in instructions from /dev/urandom would be, except worse because AI output isn't purely random and has a higher probability of directing the machine to cause actual harm.
Are you saying you're opposed to letting AI perform physical labor, or that you're opposed to requiring safeguards that allow humans to physically shut it off?
I am opposed to regulating any algorithms, including AI/LLM. We can certainly have safety regulations for equipment with the potential to cause physical harm, such as industrial robots or whatever. But the regulation needs to be around preventing injury to humans regardless of what software the equipment is running.
