Just because someone is smarter than someone doesn't mean complete power. Alot of people are smarter than their bosses, but you know what the bosses have on their favour? The power to terminate the employee. If I have the power to terminate the AI at any time, as long as I don't give that power up, I will have power over it.

We're not talking differences in IQ points. We're talking about the difference between an ant and a human, only humans are the new ants.

Can you predict and prevent every possible way the AI could remove your power to terminate it?

Would you bet your life and the lives of those you care about on keeping the AI under control?

Remember, the AI only has to win once.

And the GK only has to switch off the AI once.

The AI can always be switched on again, but it can never be put back in the box.
