can you tell me why it seems likely to you? obvious, inevitable, these are religious ways to reason. what coexistence are we talking about beyond how we co-exist with existing software?
- myrmidon 4y agoI assume we're talking about why I deem it "likely" (lets say the likelihood is 1%-- thats already 10000 times more threathening than the asteroid) that an AI might not want to coexist with us: This is because it appears clear to me that it would be unlikely and hard for an AI to receive "fair" treatment, i.e. rights comparable to a human being (given comparable cognitive capabilities). The current focus of AI ethics supports this view ("aligning" the AIs decisionmaking with what humans want from it: this would be called indoctrination or brainwashing with humans, and generally not viewed favorably), as do instances where biological humans are very clearly favored over entities with comparable cognitive capabilities: Compare legal rights of retarded humans with those of cattle (sorry for crass tone, not ment offensively).
