I support Artificial intelligence because of the possibility of it being really helpful, that it remembers everything and it tries to do what you tell them to do, something like that but I think there would be no chance of them taking over (like the terminator or something) if there are precautions that cannot be written over by the system or something.
Russian hackers have shown that they can penetrate into the protected computers around the world. Where you have confidence that they won't penetrate the program and will not change it?
We should not worry about the KGB hackers, we should be worry about AI hacking our infrastructure.
Once AI reaches the level of an bright human teenager, we are in trouble. At that point, the AI can improve
exponentially, and we'll not be able to compete. You'll know immediately who is an AI human and who is a BIO human.
The AI humans would look at us like you look at ants. They would probably be able to map your brain in real time to see what you are thinking, or what you'll be thinking next :-)
PS. Have you ever worked with someone who appears to be 40-60 IQ points lower than you? You knew what they are going to say or do before they said it or done it. You knew what mistakes they are going to do next. Right?
I work with such people every day.
Now imagine if you meet an AI-human and he/she is 10,000 IQ points smarter than you. Do you get the picture?
I do not understand what are you afraid of competition with an artificial intelligence? Don't be afraid. Artificial intelligence is a very narrow focus. I doubt he will be able to switch between tasks as a man. He is an expert in your own field.
