The prospect of ASI carries inherent risks. If AI systems start prioritizing objectives that are misaligned with human values, they could act in ways detrimental to humanity. The "intelligence gap" could render us powerless to understand or control superintelligent AI’s decision-making processes, making it a vital area of concern.
Experts are vocal about the necessity of addressing these safety concerns and establishing protocols that ensure AI remains aligned with human morals and ethics. This debate is not merely academic; the future of civilization may hinge on how we navigate the development and regulation of AI technologies.
