Reply to comment by OneRedditAccount2000 in Artificial General Intelligence is not a good thing (For us), change my mind by OneRedditAccount2000

"used by people = (people) wants to live forever and own everything"

Not everyone wants to live forever, nor do they want to own everything.

"We're territorial animals"

Artificial intelligence is not an animal. So yeah...

That's the reason it's "artificial". Humans created it. It didn't occur through nature's development.

So it's a "chess engine" used by animals, that's your point? I ask the program what the best move is, and the program jus tells me the move, yes?

And you think animals aren't gonna behave like animals when they have better toys to play with? Can you even breathe air without acting in your own self interest?

Now we're getting philosophical

If I make ASI, wouldn't it be rational that I would want to use it to its full potential? How can I do that if I live inside a state that has authority over me and can tell me that I can't do certain things, and will also very much love to steal or control my ASI?

Someone will inevitably use ASI for that purpose, if not its creators

Think of it like this

Let's say Mars becomes a clone of Earth without people and it's obviously full of natural resources

What happens next?

Someone will want to take that land, and take as much land as they can take

There's gonna be a flag on that fucking planet if that planet is useful to people, and some groups will obviously take more land than others

I'm a hedonist, maybe that's why I think the creators of ASI wouldn't be suicidal?

Mars here is a metaphor for the value ASI will generate

Life is a competition, a zero sum game
