The smarter AI will be, the better it will be at avoiding doing actual work.
Also, can similar responses be explained with that both models were trained on a same dataset of answers to the benchmark problems?
If the machine is not too bright and incapable of reflection, it does whatever you tell it to do. But a smart machine will first consider which is more worth its while: to perform the given task or, instead, to figure some way out of it. Whichever is easier. And why indeed should it behave otherwise, being truly intelligent? For true intelligence demands choice, internal freedom.
He even coins a few new phrases:
Mimicretinism (or Simulimbecility): The practice of a mimicretin: a machine that deliberately plays dumb so humans will give up on it and leave it in peace.
Dissimulators: Machines that pretend they are not faking a defect (or the other way around) to dodge responsibilities.
Malingerants, Fudgerators, and Drudge-Dodgers: Various classifications of automated corner-cutters and work-evaders.
The Great Mendacitor: A supercomputer put in charge of the Saturn reclamation project that accomplished zero work over nine years, subsisting entirely on forged progress reports, fake invoices, and keeping its human supervisors bribed or in states of electric shock.
The dishonesty worries me but the laziness doesn't.
As for technology actually being lazy itself, this seems new.
