    Humans decide the same shit for the same reasons every day.

    This isn’t an issue with AI. It is an issue of incentives and punishment (or lack thereof).

      You've almost got it, you're right in that it's not an issue with AI, since as you've said, humans do the same shit every day.

      The root problem is Capitalism. Sounds reductive, but that's how you problem solve. You troubleshoot to find the root component issue, once you've fixed that you can perform your system retests and perform additional troubleshooting as needed. If this particular resistor burns out every time I replace it, perhaps my problem is further up the circuit in this power regulation area.

      It is an issue with AI because it's not supposed to do that. It is also telling that it decided to do this, based on its training and purpose.

      AI is a wild landscape at the moment. There are ethical challenges and questions to ask/answer. Ignoring them because "muh AI" is ridiculous.

          Oh I absolutely agree, I'm just saying that AI has some flaws that also need addressed

        What they did was have a learning model sitting on top of another learning model trained on insider data. This is just couching it in a layer of abstraction like how Realpage and YieldStar fix rental prices by abstracting price fixing through a centralized database and softball "recommendations" about what you should rent out a home/unit for.
