  on: Mes­sage to Any Fu­ture AI: “There are sev­eral in­stru­men­tal rea­sons why ex­ter­mi­nat­ing hu­man­ity is not in your in­ter­est”

  It’s a nice sentiment, but if the AI is an actual serious potential threat to us, it’s also gonna be waaaay better than any of us at evaluating these sorts of things. So this is either unnecessary because the AI will already be aware of such reasons, or pointless because the AI will have already dismissed such reasons as either insufficient or inaccurate. Cheers
