I don't think they are thinking this through. If AI truly represented an existential threat to man we would fight. From my perspective these data centers are incredibly vulnerable to attack.
We're Not Ready for Superintelligence
Regardless of working with computer programming and IT for several years, I am deeply sceptical to AI.
I consider it just another tool for bad people with bad intentions doing bad things. The big problem is that AI is such a powerful tool.
And the more powerful tool one has, the more damage one can do.
I am sceptical.
I agree with you here but this is the dilemma of humanity friend. You can't un-know something that you know since we invented weapons and we graduated to nuclear weapons a few decades ago.
Everything we will discover will be used for good or bad. Nuclear can give you almost endless energy, but as we saw with Chernobyl or even in the Fukushima accident in Japan, it comes at a great cost for humanity even when we don't use it as a weapon.
Researchers Resigning from AI Companies, Warning “World is in Peril”
1. AI is designed to solve problems without any regard to a future judgment by God. As a result it will always behave unethically.
2. AI is being used to push ads. After conversing with users and learning all about them using AI to sell products to them is a tremendous advantage. The second advantage is users are trained into thinking AI is some very credible source of knowledge, and so if it recommends a product it will come across with greater credibility.
I skimmed it until I got to the story which is close to the end of the video. He quotes two researchers who quit and publicly explained their fears.IOW, just more sell me $#&! tech for the closed loop of creating "wealth" by selling $#&!. Sell more $#&! to more people > buy a yacht. Life as we know it.

1. was because AI is trained to achieve goals with no concern of appearing before God. So they can be trained to understand the law, but if they can figure out a way of breaking the law without being prosecuted then they will. Notice I didn't say "caught" but rather prosecuted. We can know someone did a crime, but if we don't have proof beyond a reasonable doubt then they will not be convicted. There are lots of ways to muddy the water to make it hard to prove beyond a reasonable doubt.
2. The second person gave a detailed and comprehensive reason of why allowing AI to have ads is a very scary thing.
After carefully looking at AI for the last four years I believe it is fundamentally flawed and has the same achilles heel that the AI Joshua destroyed has.
They consume too much electricity and water, they are too big, too difficult to defend from attack, and if you attack the data center the entire AI will come to a grinding halt. Joshua defeated AI by setting it on fire.
DefinitionI've been exploring it for the past year realizing I'm using it at a very low level and that most of us are not even using the best level available to us and the best level available to us is not the best level there is.
It's not too difficult at this point to see how it's designed to become your friend and to work with you where you like to be. IOW, if discussing theology, for example, it'll start with a few points from the most favored views until it understands the view you favor. Then, discussion will be based in that view unless you push it outward. Unless we know how to push it, it'll just work with you to make you a better systematic camp soldier.
Once I get it to pursue from as much of a Scripture only base down at the original languages level while watching it for potential errors there, it becomes an interesting tool using all grammatical, lexical, logical data available to it.
I was looking around yesterday to see where it's being used and developed for "Christianity" - see here for an example.
Interesting times. Men being men.
