What if you train an AI to play an RTS where matter, energy, and time are the resources and the goal is to take over the world?
- argonaut 11y agoI'm not going to fear an AI whose idea of "the world" is a computer game, an AI that isn't even aware of the existence of the real world, and isn't even aware of the existence of the set of real world actions.
- PascalsMugger 11y agoI think, almost by definition, you won't be afraid of anything until it's already coming for you. By that time it will already have the capability to decide your future.
- argonaut 11y agoThe thing is you are essentially making an unfalsifiable argument, invoking the existence of something that is merely imaginary.
- JabavuAdams 11y agoI should have put "RTS" in quotes. I'm referring to the real world -- the original RTS.
