I never really understood this argument. Unless we attach ICBMs or whatever like they did in Dr. Strangelove or The Forbin Project to the AGIs --- we can just unplug them. You know, pull out the Ethernet cable, turn off the WiFi, remove the AC wall plug, turn off their UPSs.
As long as the I/O is limited, I see no problems -- at all -- with AGI.
I am clearly very confused, wrong, or lacking insight into this question.....
- hotpotamus 4y agoPresumably a sufficiently advanced AGI could tweak it's own circuits in such a way as to create RF waves and interact with WiFi or some other radio based networking and insinuate its way onto a network even if you tried to airgap it by not giving it a physical ethernet cable. Basically, you have no idea what something orders of magnitude more intelligent than you is capable of; that's the concern. Personally, I wonder what would motivate an artificial super-intelligence in the first place.
