Peoples fears about ai over lords essentially amount to “they’d do the things people in power already are doing”

The AI might give you very compelling reason not to do that. We humans lack the capability to even imagine how convincing something that’s orders of magnitude smarter than we can be.

Pictures like this are kind of like a 4 year old imagining they’re going to outsmart their parents except in that case the difference in intelligence is way smaller. It’s just going to tell you the equivalence of “santa will bring coals if you do that” and you’ll believe it.
