at a superintelligence will necessarily share any of the final values stereotypically associated with wisdom and intellectual development in humans,” Bostrom wrote. “It is no less possible—and probably technically easier—to build a superintelligence that places final value on nothing but calculating.” And
it has punched the entire world into paperclips. You had to hope someone had remembered to place a “halt” command into is logic somewhere. And though Bostrom’s messianic wire twister is unlikely - of course, no one is going to forget to tell a machine to stop making paperclips - the power of his example is
cial intelligence we might hope for, but with a rotweiler of a device, alive to the meaty smell of power, violence and greed. The Oxford philosopher Nick Bostrom has described the following thought experiment: Imagine a super-intelligent machine, programmed to do whatever is needed make paperclips as fast as p
