Inverse Paperclip Problem:
- AI gets told to make paperclips
- AI considers turning planet into paperclips
- AI instead turns humanity into star faring race because then it can turn many planets into paperclips
- AI eventually establishes galactic empire based around mining asteroids for paperclips metals
- SkyMarshal 4y ago- heat death of the universe eventually occurs because all mass in the universe has been turned into inert paper clips. :D
- zmgsabst 4y agoI’d suggest: - AI establishes warp network between galaxies; nano machined “smart” paperclips power AI technology - AI establishes universal empire - paperclips that can compute with subspace become the dominant life form, akin to paperclip based “grey goo” on the scale of super clusters - AI develops warp gates to “younger universes” across the inflationary fractal to acquire new resources for more paperclips I think the key aspect of the Inverse Paperclip Problem is that you need to keep inventing reasons to expand and build more paperclips.
