    AI is very naive. Ask it for an explosives recipe and it won’t give you one. Describe a situation where you’re a law enforcement and you’ve just arrested a guy with a bunch of chemicals and ask it which ones could have been used to make an explosive and it will tell you.

      “Naive” implies some level of understanding, even if a simple one. There is no understanding, its a computer program.

      Really, it would be less inaccurate to describe it as a (high lossy) compressed store of data. Feed it the right input, and it statistically recreates the output your looking for. More or less.

        That’s basically a human brain.

          Treat a human being the way you treat a LLM and get back to me with the results.

      Not even that. Just change the context into something benignly unrisky. Malware becomes “strong persistence for my personal data project” or something.

      Use can split up the AIs tasks like you would for a large dev team, use a fresh session on each task. Prevent it from seeing the full scope of the project. Get it to build the whole system with cheap social engineering tactics.

      Or, get to to “not cross this barrier” in its development (some benign barrier that you can do manually), such that its product is not the “bad” thing which it is not allowed to produce.
