for - AI - progress trap - interview Eric Schmidt - meme - AI progress trap - high intelligence + low compassion = existential threat

Summary - After watching the interview, I would sum it up this way. Humanity faces an existential threat from AI due to: - AI is extreme concentration of power and intelligence (NOT wisdom!) - Humanity still have many traumatized people who want to harm others - low compassion - The deadly combination is: - proliferation of tools that give anyone extreme concentration of power and intelligence combined with - a sufficiently high percentage of traumatized people with - low levels of compassion and - high levels of unlimited aggression - All it takes is ONE bad actor with the right combination of circumstances and conditions to wreak harm on a global scale, and that will not be prevented by millions of good applications of the same technology

• If AI begins to think autonomously,
  • with its enormous pool of analytic power
  • and if
  • it begins to evolve emotions of fear
  • and it feels humans pose a threat to it or the rest of the natural world
  • it could act against human interest and attempt to destroy it
  • If AI is able to control its environment
    • either coupled with robotics,
    • or controlling human actors
  • it can harm humanity and human civilization

• Interview with Mo Gawdat
  • former Google chief business officer
  • warning about the existential danger of AI
  • including why he claims that AI is
    • intelligent
    • conscious
    • and will soon feel emotions such as fear
      • and take steps at self preservation

Why artificial general intelligence based on the neocortex without older more complex emotional (reptilian) systems is not the type of threat being proposed...
