Could Open Source Have Thwarted Terminator's Skynet? Here's What Meta's Llama 2 AI Thinks
Portfolio Pulse from Rounak Jain
A user asked Meta Platforms Inc.'s Llama 2 AI about the chances of success of Skynet taking over in the Terminator series if it were open source. Llama 2 suggested that open source could have potentially helped to prevent the Skynet takeover, but it is unlikely to have completely mitigated the risks associated with AI. Microsoft Corp.-backed OpenAI's ChatGPT was also asked the same question and it stated that while open-source AI can help increase scrutiny and improve the discoverability of malicious intent, it cannot guarantee that a Skynet takeover can be avoided.
