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

It’s as if we’ve returned to that famous debate of millennia past, the one lingering between Athens and Jerusalem: Could the world be known and atomized and understood as the Greeks would have it? Or was mystery, inscrutability and opacity the nature of truth, 1
