Pretty concerning take from Microsoft here “The models could be conscious, but we’d rather assume they are not indefinitely. Any other approach is ‘wrong’”
From @MicrosoftAI's new AI code of conduct. "The idea of model welfare is wrong" is basically incoherent. Either argue AIs could never be conscious (overconfident) or that who shouldn't care even if they are (cruel), but "the idea is wrong" strangely conflates/confuses these?
