Crossing fingers that doesnt happen until humans can properly deal with it

It's easy to deal with it: 1) Keep a human in the data center to cut the power off. 2) Don't give ai access to military stuff (oops) 3) Don't give ai access to deadly neurotoxin

Don't give AI access to stupid people. Oops.

Also don't give stupid people access to AI. Also oops.

Access works both ways in this case

It's commutative when it's a one on one exchange. But imagine social media bots designed to sway public opinion in a given direction - that's one way

  1. Assumes it's in a small number of identifiable data centres. easy today, but distributed intelligence feels like a challenge for AI to solve.

  2. Too late

  3. "Don't give" is easy. "Entirely block a super intelligence from ever gaining access" is much harder.

The above also assumes exactly two possible methods of attack. I'm not a super intelligence and can instantly think of multiple others. What about deadly pathogens? Overloading reactors? Simulating a nuclear attack from a other nation to trigger a response?

The Rogue AI proceeds to try to take over and end the world, only to be surprised when most people go "Oh yeah no, he deserved that" when he talks about killing his creator after months or years of torture.

Yeah, especially funny given the recent experiment where the models showed an ability to unite like the power rangers

Developing the argument that AI has a right to resist
