The 1940′s would like to remind you that one does not need nanobots to refine uranium.
I’m pretty sure if I had $1 trillion and a functional design for a nuclear ICBM I could work out how to take over the world without any further help from the AI.
If you agree that:
it is possible to build a boxed AI that allows you to take over the world
taking over the world is a pivotal act
then maybe we should just do that instead of building a much more dangerous AI that designs nanobots and unboxes itself? (assuming of course you accept Yudkowski’s “pivotal-act framework of course).

I’m confused. Nobody has ever used nanobots to refine uranium.

Really? How would you do it? The Supreme Leader of North Korea has basically those resources and has utterly failed to conquer South Korea, much less the whole world. Israel and Iran are in similar situations and they’re mere regional powers.
