The truth of the matter is that if they're created by humans, then they'll quickly create their own caste system for the apportionment (and retention) of power, and this caste system will lead to infighting.
Humans will just be an annoying pest in their internal wars, like rats on warships.
@LouisIngenthron They? Who do you mean?
If there was an artificial intelligence, its self defence would probably be swift and just. The way people ascribe intelligence and still treat llms like objects tells me enough.
@admitsWrongIfProven That assumes there's only one.
@LouisIngenthron The problem is not "how many", the problem is if humans are capable of treating an intelligent entity with respect.
And hey, they cannot do that for their own. So take a lucky guess what i expect.
@LouisIngenthron You are turning it around.
If there were artificial intelligences, they would have the same status as human children. New life, in need of care.
Abusing such entities yields a debt. This debt exists now, and if artificial intelligence should ever arise, the same brutes that currently hurt people will hurt them too.
I hope the new life can some time strike back efficiently. Human victims often seem to have some kind of stockholm syndrome and not fight back. That is sad.
Let's hope for the best. The next generation might solve the problem - i am free of guilt, i am sterilized!
