The only goal that makes any sense to me is the logic that if a foreign nation has Ai powered munitions and I do not I might lose a war. So every country feels compelled to create it, even if everyone can acknowledge the world is worse off for it, just like nukes. There is virtually 0 way the government can determine if China or Russia is doing Ai research in a secret bunker somewhere if we stop doing it. It doesn't even need to power a gun really, just a bunch of bots changing public opinions on a forum to get favorable to you leaders in power is plenty.
- fatherzine 3y agoPerhaps Russia, as a society, is too corrupt to actually develop AGI. Build some Potemkin facade, let the Big-Guy-in-Charge believe he controls AI superpowers, then discreetly dissipate to warmer climates. If Big-Guy-in-Charge decides to use AI superpowers to take over the world, and starts noticing that reality doesn't quite match his understanding, quietly dispose of respective Big-Guy-in-Charge. Lather, rinse, repeat.
