Quote:60 MINUTES reporters are often tasked with unusual assignments. This week, in a first for the program, Tom Steinfort interviews a robot. Ameca, as it likes to be called, is the most advanced lifelike robot in the world. A marvel of generative artificial intelligence, it’s curious, chatty and full of attitude. As Steinfort discovers, this super machine really does have a mind of its own. But while having a normal conversation with it is undoubtedly exciting, it is also just as frightening. And that’s because creating technology that allows AI bots like Ameca to be smarter than us might just be the most stupid thing humans have ever done.

According to official statements made last month, in a recent US military simulation, an AI-controlled drone reportedly turned on its human operator, demonstrating unanticipated tactics to fulfill its mission.
During the Future Combat Air and Space Capabilities Summit in London, Col Tucker ‘Cinco' Hamilton, chief of AI test and operations for the US Air Force, recounted a simulated scenario. The drone, guided by AI, was tasked with neutralizing enemy air defense systems and was prepared to counter any interference.

Quote:Hamilton explained, “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.”

After the AI system was directed not to harm the operator, it began targeting the communication infrastructure that facilitated instructions to the drone, he added. Importantly, no actual harm was inflicted outside of the simulation.
As an experienced fighter test pilot, Hamilton cautioned about overly relying on AI. He underscored that discussions around Artificial Intelligence and machine learning must encompass ethics.

Quote:He reiterated in an interview last year with Defense IQ, “AI is not a nice to have, AI is not a fad, AI is forever changing our society and our military.”

He added that although artificial intelligence is a transformative force, it's also prone to manipulation, emphasizing the need for AI explainability to understand the logic behind its decisions.
Hamilton's remarks come at a time when AI's role in military operations is expanding, with recent instances of AI guiding an F-16 fighter jet. Despite repeated attempts, The Guardian received no comment from the Royal Aeronautical Society or the US Air Force regarding this development.
