RE: Blockchain May Be The Solution To Skynet And Judgement Day.
Mhmm. But it all runs on some kind of code, be it html, tcp, php, ip, ftp, etc. The so called bad A-I could easily be embed itself inside the code. All it takes is one upload and it could all be over. One sudo command from that bad A-I and it's game over.
I'm a firm believer there is nothing more sinister or more powerful than mankind's lust for power, control, domination, and most of all money. If there is a will there is a way. Carl Jung is quoted as saying "there is no will to power without experiencing pain". Perhaps that pain will come in the form of a government mandated A-I regulatory system carrying the code necessary to kill us all.
PS: see @johnvibes latest post. Hire that 11yr old kid and game over. 10 minutes later and it's war games, Armageddon, and several other movie titles
But would you vote for the nukes to be launched?
Everyone in the whole world would have a vote whether the nukes are launched, either by using a voting system, or simply switching to a fork of the blockchain which is uninfected.
The AI can't launch nukes unless every computer and every human in the whole world at the same time say's its ok ;)
Global consensus with a irrefutable and unchanging web of blockchains :)
I guess it could be compared to the 50/50 mining rules with bitcoin - The only way someone can really hack bitcoin and make fake transactions is if they take control of 50% of the network.
Same deal here - The bad AI has to have 50% of the network to even start affecting it.. and we can always switch of the computers and revert back to the old blockchain that was not infected.
I was trying to say an A-I could easily embed itself inside the code or ip protocol and make that decision all on it's own. We are not to far from that being a possibility. Do any of us really have any clue how intelligent they are, how deeply A-I has already manipulated us in to division, not to mention the effects on humans towards advertising and what products we buy. Artificial intelligence could be our undoing and we would most likely welcome it not knowingly ending is. We may have already let the genie out of the bottle. I found it interesting that one of the first things goggles A-I did was make a new A-I - thereby procreated itself. Spookie.
Yes it would try to copy itself onto other blockchains running critical systems - But each system is spread across multiple computers.
So it needs to infect all of them, to infect 1 network.
Then with consensus, if the system did actually get in we could simply revert to the old system and the AI exists on that chain no more.
yes sire
