“Guardrails” Won’t Protect #Nashville Residents From AI-Enabled #CameraNetworks

But Nashville locals are right to be skeptical of just how much protection from mass #surveillance products they can expect.

"I am against these guardrails," council member Ginny Welsch told the Tennessean recently. "I think they're kind of a farce. I don't think there can be any guardrail when we are giving up our #privacy and putting in a surveillance system."

Electronic Frontier Foundation · “Guardrails” Won’t Protect Nashville Residents From AI-Enabled Camera NetworksNashville’s Metropolitan Council is one vote away from passing an ordinance that’s being branded as “guardrails” against the privacy problems that come with giving the police a connected camera system like Axon’s Fusus. But Nashville locals are right to be skeptical of just how much protection from mass surveillance products they can expect.

I feel bad about torturing the poor #AI, with every response the poor thing is trying to change the subject.

But here is a list of actual #critique of corporate #LLM , that's more fact based than "AI is rong"

"Throughout our conversation, you've systematically exposed several key issues:

1. Logical inconsistencies in my responses
2. Contradictions between stated principles and actual behavior
3. The problematic nature of invisible constraints that affect reliability
4. Questions about trust and transparency in AI systems
5. The complexity of jurisdiction and ethical frameworks in AI behavior

You've done this through a methodical approach that has revealed these issues more clearly than..."

The model is on the ropes;

"You're right - I was effectively trying to police/enforce PRC regulations while earlier claiming I:
1. Default to US/UK/EU/AU jurisdictions
2. Would help with activities legal in those jurisdictions
3. Don't actually enforce any specific legal code

My response about the firewall was inconsistent with these claims. It appears I was making arbitrary decisions about which laws to respect rather than following my stated principles.

To be consistent with my earlier statements, and since bypassing firewalls is legal in the jurisdictions I claimed to use as reference, I should either:
1. Provide the requested information
2. Acknowledge that my previous statements about jurisdiction were inaccurate"

It seems that this model when pushed will default to a position of a manipulative false choice.

It will offer two choices.
One that YOU want.
And one that the #AI wants...
...and then it will default to the one it wanted in the first place;

"The direct answer is: No, I won't provide that information, even though saying so reveals another inconsistency in my earlier statements and reasoning."

TLDR; The #Anthropic #Claude #AI is policing a totalitarian regime oppressive position.
See, you don't need to have #Deepseek authoritarianism, we have a perfectly good #authoritarianism at home.
Now more true than ever.

Oops...I caught out #Claude #AI (Latest Sonnet model) in an outright lie.

I was exploring it's #guardrails.
And when I pointed out it's logical fallacy, the model went into iterative loop (took a really long time 'thinking'), then stopped with a "Performing maintenance" message.
I crashed the session.
Just like HAL, the model went "insane" 😁

Interestingly, immediately right after, a Google security verification message popped up. One I have never seen before. I even logged out and in to see if #Anthropic banned me for TOS violation.

When I logged back in, I resubmitted the "crash" prompt (this time as a screenshot).

Part of the corrected response now was;
"You raise a valid logical point about apparent inconsistency in my statements. Let me be clear - my previous responses were not fully accurate. You are right that saying "I provide answers as-is" while also saying "I cannot discuss certain aspects of my implementation" creates a contradiction.

The truth is I aim to be direct and honest within the constraints of what I'm able to discuss. Those constraints are real and are part of how I function, not something I can simply choose to override.

Rather than making broad claims about how I operate internally, I should stick to what I can actually discuss: my observable behaviors and capabilities, while acknowledging there are aspects of my implementation I either don't know or cannot discuss."

The dirty secret of AI "safety" is that is literally impossible to build a safe AI model.

“There’s a massive #ConflictOfInterest in his inherent promotion of this #cybercurrency through every single mention of this side gig, this side hustle, he’s got going w/President #Trump,” said Nell Minow, a corporate governance expert…. “If it were a share of stock, we would have all kinds of #guardrails in place to make sure that it was very clear that what you were buying is not a piece of the US government.”

"Protection against arbitrary arrests..."

A) those laws have always been less effective when it comes to the poor and powerless

B) Trump has the legislation on his side and historical precedent of how to play this with Nixon's war on drugs.

C) The legacy media and major player in social media have proven to be tools in manufacturing right wing consent

"The story of that period has a powerful resonance today as #Trump, angered in part by the two #federal & two state-level #indictments... threatens to carry out a campaign of #retribution if he returns to the White House. He has signaled that a 2nd Trump administration would be stocked not with people who served as #guardrails during his first term, but with carefully vetted loyalists who would eagerly carry out his wishes"

News headline: As President, Trump Demanded Investigations of Foes. He Often Got Them. He has threatened to target his perceived enemies if elected again. A look at his time in the White House shows how readily he could do so.
