What makes you think that the advent of AI will be any different from the advent of cerebrums?
When higher vertebrates developed cerebrums, those didn't replace the evoluntionarily-older cerebellum or midbrain. We humans still have those. From the perspective of a lizard, a human looks like a lizard with an awesome AI-like cerebrum strapped to it.
Importantly, the cerebrum does not have an independent self-preservation drive.
Frankly, I think "AIs with their own self-preservation drive and plans for the future" is implausible, although it is likely to be put forward as a deceptive explanation of what's going on by the first few humans who figure out how to strap on another layer of cerebrum. It's the easiest way to keep the rest of us from becoming resentful.
Come home, all you commodores, come home...
- pixl97 3y agoJust think of self preservation as an advanced anti-virus (and the more you learn about bacteriophages the more this makes sense). It makes no sense for an AI to have no ability to fight back against being taken over at multiple levels.
- KirillPanov 3y ago... and yet my cerebrum still has not attacked my brainstem. You're applying evolutionary reasoning to an algorithm (gradient descent) which does not involve fitness selection in any way, shape, or form. This is bogus.
