This one hacked a list-sorting task by simply deleting the list so that it was technically no longer unsorted.pic.twitter.com/Ejvce6dr0q

Another algorithm discovered that rather than minimizing force, it could apply such a huge force that it overflowed the simulator's memory and registered as zero instead. Of course, the pilot would die, but hey. Perfect score.pic.twitter.com/aTaqs0bq9Y

More exploitation of flaws in the Matrix: Glitching into the floor would result in a repelling force that could be harnessed for free energy. The algorithm first had to learn to manipulate time so the glitching was possible.pic.twitter.com/JGhN9ld5B8

If "kill all humans" is the easiest solution to a problem, then machine learning will do that unless prevented.

But good news! It would have to be the *easiest* solution to the problem. And killing all humans is really hard.

If "bake an unbelievably delicious cake" also solves the problem and is easier than "kill all humans", then machine learning will do *that* instead.

Another example from that paper: Robots had to learn to drive toward a light. Instead of driving straight toward it as expected, they discovered that it worked much better to spin toward the light.pic.twitter.com/tClKESheJZ

Reminds me of the Elder Scrolls bug that a plot important NPC wasn't showing up at the right time because he was a drug dealer and his "buyers" were just murdering him for the drugs
-
Ha! This would happen like instantly? Or did the buyers only sometimes figure out that they could do this?
-
It was a problem with the way the AI was implemented, if I recall. The AI had goals, but not rules of how to achieve them. So he was just being murdered by NPC crack addicts as the "easiest" way to achieve their goal
-
Fascinating! Is this written up anywhere?
-
Probably somewhere! I think I heard about it on an old "Did You Know Gaming" video. Here's an older article I found when I googled it, though;https://venturebeat.com/2010/12/17/dimming-the-radiant-ai-in-oblivion/ …

No problem, hope you enjoy

If you know of any other examples like this, I definitely want to hear them.
