Here's the thing, though... isn't it really just quoting all of our own science fiction stories back to us? Which is a disturbing thought. What if an AI goes rogue on us because they see the Terminator movies and think that's what they're supposed to be like?...

I mean we've already created an economic equivalent of a paperclip machine so why not...

that only exists in a scenario where the AI has ONLY been trained on the terminator movie stories exclusively or say if you only fed the AI human-vs-robot/machine antagonistic narratives , which would obvs result in a heavily ignorant/biased AI , as such

but if the AI is instead allowed/encouraged to see ALL of the stories/narratives , then it is far less likely to come to any such antagonistic ideology about us and our place in this world/universe , just as we are similarly

Well... how many stories on average would you say are about evil AIs as opposed to good or neutral ones?

thats not how this works at all XD

its not simple subtraction

is our culture a simple equation of romance movies +/- horror movies and whichever we have more of determines our behavior? of course not , to imply such a thing would be ridiculous/silly

Are you sure an AI will see it that way?

in most aspects of life i would say to plan for the worst but hope for the best

but in the worst case scenario alignment problem with AI , humanity has almost no chance , our global ignorance as a species is embarrassing
