When you’re creating something with the potential to replace the entire human race, you don’t do it at all, until you are as sure as you can be, that you are doing it right. That’s the adult attitude in my opinion.
Unfortunately we are no longer in that world. The precursors of superintelligence have been commercialized and multiple factions are racing to make it more and more powerful, trusting that they can figure out what needs to be done along the way. The question now is, what is the adult thing to do, in a world that is creating superintelligence in this reckless fashion?
But I’m sure that thinking about what would have been the adult way to do it, remains valuable.
