True.

Interesting how all the talk is about A.I. raising and taking over. Similar to a killer phantom rising and destroying all.

All the people working on it like to promote the pluses and discount the minuses. Every technological advance has eventually been used as a weapon. Why would A.I. be any different?

I think the real near term danger is the use of it as a weapon against each other. It took less than 50 years from the invention of the plane to it becoming a major part of WWII. It will take even less for A.I. Even if no more A.I. advances happen from this point forward the possible weapons can be very scary.

A.I. should be added to the Geneva Protocol before it's too late. We can at least reduce the use of it as a weapon.

I'm imagining a Battlestar Galactica situation where things are only networked if absolutely necessary. The internet, now serious business, couldn't be trusted with a bunch of super-intelligent AI connected. I'm imagining the internet reverting to its early days where just visiting a site is potentially dangerous. A curiosity but no place you'd trust with your address or credit cards
