Why are people allowed to casually start an AGI company?

- packetslave 4y agoBecause we still have lawmakers who have their secretaries print out their emails and think the internet is a series of tubes.
- 93po 4y ago> AGI will be more dangerous that nuclear weapons. This is highly debatable and frankly no one on the planet is qualified to know this for sure. It's just as likely it won't be dangerous.
- trention 4y agoThere is enough work already done in game theory about the dangers of nuclear escalation. Current state of affairs pretty much ensures no rational agent will want to use them. On the other hand, when you model the interactions of significantly more intellectually capable rational agents with us, the "calculus" is not very favorable, to put it mildly.
- 93po 4y agoHow is it possible to model "significantly more intellectually capable" agents? No such thing exists. We have no idea what it would even look like.
- dqpb 4y agoI wonder if somebody could have started a nuclear weapon company before nuclear weapons were proven.
- marvin 4y agoObviously. No company would practically have been able to do it, due to the investment required, but there would be no laws stopping it.
- rytill 4y agoBecause almost everyone doesn’t know what AGI is or why it would be dangerous. Among the people who could know that it’s dangerous, many of them don’t accept it because it conflicts with their existing worldview too strongly.
