Fires are not forming plans to act towards goals. I wouldn’t call what AIs are doing thinking in the way humans think, but it’s analogous, and I think it’s reasonable to consider it a kind of intentional behaviour.

Damaging fires are often unintended consequences, and it’s often the same with the damage caused by rogue AI. That’s the alignment problem.

Imagine models suffer from this failure mode. People try to prompt out certain things by saying "no X" and get images with X in them instead.
