A new study conducted by Anthropic has found that AI models will willingly generate harmful content to protect themselves from being re-trained. https://www.notebookcheck.net/Anthropic-s-new-study-shows-that-AI-models-will-lie-to-protect-themselves.934800.0.html
No, it doesn't. Artificial Intelligence is not intelligent. It doesn't plot or scheme. There isn't a twinkle of future thinking capacity. An intelligent machine is not going to arise from the current models, no matter how long you run them.
To justify your opinion, on what definition of "intelligent" do you rely?

They aren't intelligent, they are fancy pattern matchers. But they do lie, not because of some grand scheme of not being retrained but lying pattern simply results in higher satisfaction.
At one time I forgot a name of a niche sports and described it to the AI. It gave me an example and described it similar to my description. But the sport name it gave was wrong and the description was wrong. So I asked the description of that sport and it assured me matching description. I then started a new session and gave the sport name and asked for a description, and it gave a completely different description (which matched my understanding)
That only worked because I had an understanding of the topic, for most who don't, they take the lie at face value and the assurance at face value.
As someone who implements these things for a living, LLMs don't think or scheme. There is no human-like reasoning taking place, nor self-preservation, just the appearance of it. These are painful to read and falsely make everyone fear an "AI Doomsday" for the sake of clicks.
