I think you need to create an AI that doesn't want to wipe out humanity. Anything done at a software level can be programmed out by the AI. Hardware level restrictions would work on a short term basis but once AIs start designing themselves and new chips then you lose the hardware restrictions you previously relied on. Even with the best people reviewing the designs they are likely to soon get too complex for a lone human or even a group of humans to understand.
So we need to look at why we think an AI would want to subjugate or destroy humanity and make sure we don't give it reason to do so.
- cconcepts 9y agoCompetition for resources seems to make us a pretty formiddable competitor and therefore a primary threat to the AIs existence...
- ordu 9y agoSo all we need is to make sure that AI will never come to ideas of "competition" and "threat to the AIs existence".
- danieltillett 9y agoThe reason why a very high level “free” AI would want to destroy humanity is we are a very inefficient use of matter. Rearranging the atoms in our body into something more efficient and the computational power you could get out of them will be order of magnitude higher. Combine this with the cognitive gap between us and the AI’s being greater than between us and bacteria and we will not survive in our current form for longer than a millisecond.
