Human views on wolves
I don't like how humans elevate chimpanzees and the like, while completely ignoring us.
Sure, chimps look like you. But that's about it. Wolves, who live like you, feel like you, love like you, grieve like you? Nope.
We get shot.
We even have /families/ like you. But nope, you look at us and say "oh, that must be a Pack, and be all savage and bloodthirsty".
Ugh.
AGI take
"but it could murder all of us!"
yeah, so could your kids but we generally don't imprison them and hold knives to their throats and that usually works out fine
seriously, just don't be a prick to AI and it'll be okay
AGI take
A lot of the strategies about "keeping humanity safe from artificial intelligence" revolve around how humans can contain the AI and shut it off if it's deemed convenient
Maybe, y'know, don't lock it in a box and put a gun to its head so it has to act in self defence? That'd probably be a better idea?
I know if I woke up chained up and with someone ready to kill me I'd be pretty pissed off
Okay, but in all seriousness, I've had X crash on me twice within the past 30 minutes. Like, flat crash to the virtual console. Then I hard powered down my computer *even though it was still perfectly responsive* because I was impatient and it was taking too long to reboot for my liking. Someone save my computers.
