Humans are always working to create 'stuff'. And they're always finding new and interesting ways to destroy things. It's no wonder that we regularly come up with new and interesting ways to destroy ourselves. Maybe this one will work, or maybe we'll come up with guidelines and restrictions to prevent that before they destroy us.
Or maybe they'll become the next phase of 'human' life, after they wipe out the previous phase...
Or maybe they'll be taught how to not develop into wiping out humans...
Well they have 'facial recognition' but I've already seen a twin unlock his brothers iPhone X. We're doomed. How many people use fake ID's lol!
I just hope that we will have enough right minded people in power to enforce enough regulations and control over AI activity.
The right regulations and the right controls, to still allow experimentation and progress, but not to bring about the downfall... It's a pretty fine line. Humans are the kind of species to try walk that line though. and so far so good...
Sorry I didn't reply @ratticus didn't come across this. Yeah hopefully we can keep sane for long enough so that we may have a few generations beyond us. But at this rate, I feel like I'm strapping into a roller coaster these next 50 years.
