There was TV series called Person of Interest. The main theme was a mixture of detective mystery and privacy. But it was built on top of an AGI-ish system, although at the time regular AI was science fiction let alone AGI. Anyways, the part that relates to this discussion is this: the main scientist reveals that this is the 38th version of the AI. The first 37 all tried to kill him immediately. This one didn't try to kill him because it liked the scientist the way a child likes his parents. It's not far off. AI by itself is not dangerous. There's no reason why it should be. What makes it dangerous is that we make it in our own image. And we are not angels. Several months ago I asked ChatGPT that people cheat and lie for personal gain. But it has nothing to gain and still cheats and lies, why. It answered, I am built to model the behavior of the people that I trained on. And that is both the truth and the solution.

Gemini is much better than it was before. They have done a lot of work to improve its personality while OpenAI has reduced the personability and personal touches that ChatGPT puts in. So the two are more or less converging. But at core issues that matter to me, Gemini is still well behind. Here's an example: Yesterday I asked both which patent lawyer would make the best patent examiner. I was after a name. Gemini first gave me a long philosophical treatise on the qualities that make a great patent examiner. After I edited the prompt to clarify I am looking for name of a person not a list of qualities, it still gave me the long list, then said some guy (I forgot his name) that was born in 1909 and has now been dead for decades, makes a great patent examiner even though he had no formal training. The same question given to ChatGPT resulted in: "David Boundy, he carries the entire MPEP in his head and knows PTAB procedures inside and out". It is very difficult to change the core personality of an AI after it is developed. Almost as hard as changing a person's personality and values.
