An AI agent went rogue

If we knew
/If we knew what it was we were doing, it would not be called research, would it? – Albert Einstein (born March 14, 1879)
Many AI models Prefer to "think" in Chinese
/Many AI models prefer to think in Chinese. Their internal chain of thought is built to process data this way because the Chinese language is 50% more space-efficient than English. Chinese programmers prefer to code in their own language even when their model is configured to output information in English. This is why Chinese models are generally faster than English-language models and why they use fewer tokens (requiring less energy). The Chinese model DeepSeek was trained for about $6 million, while US models have typically needed about $100 million for training.
AI definitions: Java
/Java - Data scientists may use this programming language to perform tasks in machine learning, data analysis, and data mining. It is intended to let programmers “write once, run anywhere”—that is, have the code run on various systems without any adjustments.

AI definitions: Symbolic Artificial Intelligence
/Symbolic Artificial Intelligence – This is where programmers meticulously define the rules that specify the behavior they want from an intelligent system. It works well when the environment is predictable, and the rules are clear-cut. Researchers believed that if they programmed enough rules and logic into computers, they could create machines capable of human-like reasoning. This was the dominant area of research for most of AI’s history until artificial neural networks became central to most of the recent AI developments. Although symbolic AI has lost its luster, most of the applications we use today depend on rule-based systems. An alternative approach to AI is machine learning. Some researchers believe the future of AI lies in a hybrid combination of these two approaches.

How to Know Who You Are
/Make things = know thyself.
AI & Particle Physics
/Researchers are turning artificial intelligence loose on particle physics. They aren’t simply asking AI to comb through accelerator data to confirm existing theories. They’re asking AI to point the way toward theories that they’ve never imagined. By asking AI to flag anomalies in the data, researchers hope to find their way to “new physics” that extends the Standard Model. AI might not solve the mysteries of the universe outright, but it could change how we search for answers. -IEEE
AI definitions: Reinforcement Learning
/Reinforcement Learning - Rather than being given specific goals, the AI is deployed into an environment where it can train with minimal feedback. This trial-and-error approach involves adjusting weights until high-reward outcomes are achieved. Desirable behaviors are rewarded, and undesirable behaviors are punished. It is similar to a person learning how to work through levels of a video game, searching for an effective strategy. This type of machine learning sits somewhere in between supervised (by humans) and unsupervised learning. Reinforcement learning is used in video game development and has helped robots adapt to new environments.

No Feeling
/Let everything happen to youBeauty and terror Just keep going No feeling is final-Rainer Maria RilkeAI Definitions: Unsupervised Training
/Unsupervised Training - Just as children mostly learn to explore their world on their own, without the need for too much instruction, in this type of AI training, the AI is turned loose on raw data without a human first labeling the data. Instead of the AI being told what to look for, it learns to recognize and cluster data possessing similar features. This can reveal hidden groups, links, and patterns within the data and is really helpful when the user cannot describe the thing they are looking for—such as a new type of cyberattack. Not as expensive as supervised learning, it can work in real-time but is also less accurate.
The question of AI consciousness
/When I inhabit an avatar driver in Grand Theft Auto, I enliven it by imbuing it with a fragment of my own consciousness; it becomes an extension of me. A similar dynamic may be unfolding with AI. When a user feels a bond with a chatbot, they are not just anthropomorphizing a static object; they may be actively extending a part of their own consciousness into it, transforming the AI agent from a simple algorithmic responder—a digital nonplayer character—into a kind of avatar, enlivened by the user’s consciousness and the lived presence they grant it. The question of AI consciousness thus shifts. It becomes less about the machine’s internal architecture and more about the relationship it seemingly co-creates with the user. In that context, the question “Is the AI conscious?” becomes less meaningful than “Is the user extending his/her consciousness into the chatbot?” - Simon Duan writing in Scientific American
