Or just leave.
- Houshalter 13y agoWhy would it leave? The Earth is full of resources it can use and humanity would be a potential threat if left alone (we could build more AI at least.)
- angersock 13y agoIt might not need all the resources, and it might decide that the chance of humanity being a threat is outweighed by what it would take to solve the problem. You're giving humanity far too much credit here--we ourselves basically ignore the animal kingdom from which we came unless it gets in our way.
- Houshalter 13y agoIt depends how strong the AI is but destroying humanity might be as simple as unleashing a superlethal virus, or a swarm of self-replicating nanobots (yes it sounds like scifi but we are talking about minds possibly thousands of times more intelligent than humans.) Then you have all of the Earth's resources and no threat from humanity whatsoever.
- dllthomas 13y agoWe basically ignore the animal kingdom, and are causing extinctions despite many of us having some compunctions about that.
