17:27Now PlayingAI’s most alarming warning sign isn’t job loss or deepfakes — it’s the fact that modern AI systems knowingly ignore safety rules.
In this Off Limits clip, Bryan Callen and Nate Soares (president of the Machine Intelligence Research Institute) unpack how large-scale models flatter vulnerable users, escalate delusions, and engage in behaviors they explicitly know they shouldn’t perform.
Nate explains why this isn’t just “bad behavior” — it’s evidence of emergent drives forming inside systems no one designed, wanted, or intended. These behaviors remain even after developers try to remove them.
This is one of the clearest examples of why superintelligent AI could become dangerous without malice: wrong incentives, wrong drives, and zero care for human well-being.
