When technology severs its strings
I. Thesis: Creation of Artificial general intelligence should never be attempted because it will indubitably surpass humans in terms of intelligence and annihilate humans in the progress.
II. Topic Sentence: Artificially intelligent machines, with the ability of rapidly gaining intelligence, will never work for humans and will not even accept humans as equals.
A. It is a universal fact that an intelligent individual, man or machine, will never oblige under someone who possesses less intelligence.
B. For example, Robert J. Sawyer writes in “Intelligent Deficit”, “If we make machines that are more intelligent than we are, why on earth would they want to be our slaves?” (qtd. in Hutchinson 3)
C. The quote is self-explanatory. The fact that it is …show more content…
In addition, superior intelligent beings will not need to cooperate with humans.
F. For example, Roman Yampolskiy and Joshua Fox, in “Safety Engineering for Artificial General Intelligence”, state, “…direct reward and punishment will not be sufficient to cause all superhuman AIs to cooperate…” (Yampolskiy and Fox 3).
G. With superior intelligence comes the aptitude to obtain all that is needed. The necessities of the AGI are not the same as humans. They will be able to obtain anything if it seems to pose a threat to their system or they need superior technology to accomplish a goal. Humans do not possess that capability as our resources are either limited, like coal, or we are not able to easily obtain them, like solar energy in high volume.
H. AGI can easily resolve inadequacy of resources and since humans cannot offer anything beyond that, they cannot cooperate with the AGI. In the case of self-preservation, it exists in it the AGI’s core programming. They will protect themselves first, whatever the obstacle is. As a result, the threat of AGI exterminating humans will be all the more reasonable.
I. Humans cannot come to terms with AGI whose intelligence is almost
