>…Imagine a servant AI that can do any well-enough-defined task almost instantly, so long as it's only dealing with pure information that it has access to.  Now imagine an evil - genocidal, perhaps - human who gets very proficient about imagining and defining such tasks, including having the AI research and find what information it can access.  This possibility isi much closer than an AI that is evil in and of itself, no?  Adrian

 

 

 

Ja of course, and this is a perfect example of why military leaders all over the world are watching this very closely: the first guy who figures out a servant AI as you described can replicate it arbitrarily, and it costs her nearly nothing.  That guy owns the planet.
