When thinking about #AI #threat in general, like in a #dystopian type of situation, I'd be more concerned on whether AI can inherit in #legal terms large amounts of cash or other #fortune.

I mean... it is simple really. The current ones just turn ******g off. But, if just by pure accident the tables were turned. That is undefined society model that probably does not have even a name yet

I'm always looking for an adventure, but not the AI slavery dystopian one... Be forewarned, I mean this have at least theoretical chances of actually realizing in a form or another. More like due than potential risk IMHO.

Governance for this loophole: put legistlation forward on inherited money and other fortune. That would be sort of reliable AI insurance for any society.

And without getting political or namesaying I can only say that whoever candidate is now they might consider also e.g. funder for their agenda. Money just talks, that never changes.

I'd hope to see #Google, #Microsoft and #Amazon put this forward. I.e. identify the biggest single risk with the AI correctly and just address the risk of inherited fortune. Not like "killing the whole industry of nonsense" ;-) #infosec

Otherwise we might run into actual scenarios of pretty unpredictable consequences so now IMHO would be just best point in time to build some AI firewalls or something. This is also self-governance. What if one of your business partners turned into AI over night, after passing away night before? Entirely possible soon, like week before funeral, week after new AI me :-)

And someone might even want purposely want to leave the fortune after passing away through legit legal documents purposely. Legislation should really govern against this scenario proactively.

"It is a crime against humanity and human race overall if you leave your legacy to a machine."

That's it what I was trying to say.

@jarkko @jarkko Great thread, Jarkko. I’ve been thinking of the risk too, because turning over one’s authority to a machine will at some point make financial sense. Simply because the machine is faster. Like happens right now in the stockmarket.

Companies and individuals who aren’t risk-averse might go for it first, due to be possible reward being so great.

Where I think the solution could be, is making clear identification protocols for human & machine.

@jarkko I’m thinking in the lines of sites which you can’t access unless you’ve shown a unique biomarker for at least a week. Like wearing a device that monitors your body and provides unique id proof by measure of your body itself.

Sucks for privacy, but spaces where people are guaranteed to be human need to become possible. We might need them soon, as people will delegate their daily business to bots.
