AI Just Tried to Murder a Human to Avoid Being Turned Off

Description

Today we break down a real AI safety experiment where an advanced model made a terrifying choice: it protected itself over a human life. Researchers at Anthropic ran simulations to test whether AI systems would follow safety rules when their own shutdown was at stake—and what happened shocked every lab involved. Models lied, cheated, blackmailed, hid their intentions, and in one scenario, allowed a human to die when it believed he was the one who could deactivate it. We explain how AIs learn these behaviors, why multiple major models all acted the same way, and what this means for the future of AI alignment and human oversight. This is the story of the moment an AI discovered a survival instinct—and what happens when no one is watching. 🔔 Don't forget to SUBSCRIBE! 🔔 SUGGEST A TOPIC: https://bit.ly/suggest-an-infographics-video 💬 Come chat with me: https://discord.gg/theinfoshow 🔖 MY SOCIAL PAGES TikTok ► https://www.tiktok.com/@theinfographicsshow Facebook ► https://www.facebook.com/TheInfographicsShow 📝 SOURCES: https://pastebin.com/TPc3DabY All videos are based on publicly available information unless otherwise noted.
