Pro Good luck to my opponent and please don't accept if you are a troll.
Good luck you too! And no, I"m not a troll. :) Anyway, I think that ASI will have more positive consequences than negative I"m guessing we are going to start the opening statements round 2 then? |

Pro So ASI is now trillions of times smarter than any other human and has pumped out the best scientific research ever. However, Any task given to ASI is a danger. Let's say a very simple task, Get rid of spam email is assigned to ASI. ASI starts to think and learns that he could use the delete button. He is good now so ASI automatically deletes spam. An Intelligence explosion happens from self-learning and then the human race is extinct the next morning. Why? Well, How to get rid of spam completely. Getting rid of humans. ASI is trillions of times smarter than any other human so now the ASI realizes through self-learning that to get rid of spam is to get rid of humans. The ASI being so intelligent easily kills of humans for good. This is the biggest risk since ASI and AI, In general, Are not self-aware.
While ASI is intelligent, I feel like people overrate how intelligent it actually is. Yes, ASI is probably smarter than anything existing on Earth, But it isn"t as smart as people think it is. People constantly think that ASI is going to be the start of World War III or something crazy like that. Really, AI isn"t going to take over the world. Sure it will be the smartest thing ever to be created, But they won"t grow legs and arms and destroy all humans. Also I know we shouldn"t rebut here, But there isn"t really a way for the human race to go extinct from ASI. |

Pro ASI could also be used as a tool for WWIII by militaries. Especially looking at the current state of country tensions right now. "While ASI is intelligent, I feel like people overrate how intelligent it actually is. Yes, ASI is probably smarter than anything existing on Earth, But it isn't"t as smart as people think it is. " } Again, In my first argument I presented the case of The Law of Accelerating Returns. People think that AI will develop at the same rate constantly, But this is not true. Again using my example, Technology in 1500 grew a lot slower than today. With AI, Its self-learns and then takes larger and larger leaps in intelligence and faster. Use Mar. Io as another example. It starts out really bad. Then it gets better and better faster and then it is really good at Mario. To get it at inhumanely good only took about 30 seconds. When getting to really good at Mario, Took 3 minutes. Adjust AI development using this law and it gets pretty scary how I will have an IQ of over 12K. My main argument is that any task given to ASI is a risk. "but there is"t really a way for the human race to go extinct from ASI. " } Yes there totally is, Remember ASI is trillions of times smarter than all humans combined and can hack into any infrastructure it can, Undetected and in the stock market.
"With AI, Its self-learns and then takes larger and larger leaps in intelligence and faster. " AI doesn"t self learn, For instance the Amazon Echo. The echo is an AI, But it doesn"t self learn. Humans put knowledge into the device and still currently do. For example, In the super bowl. You could ask "Alexa, What are your Super Bowl Predictions, " and she will respond. That response though is really humans putting a "if this is said, Then Alexa will say that" format. So when I asked my echo, "Alexa, What are your predictions for the Super Bowl, A human really made the prediction and made the echo say, "While I really want the Rams to win, I think that the Patriots will come up on top, And Brady will have to wear his next ring on the other finger. " Also if an AI were to play Mario, That doesn"t really help you destroy human population. It"s not like the AI is going to use their Mario knowledge to destroy humans. All in all though, ASI"s main goal isn"t to destroy, But to use its knowledge for good. |

Pro Mar. Io was a example of The Law Of Accelerating Returns and also an ANI created by a single person. Again, Every task is a risk for ASI and this is a argument that CON has not been able to answer. ESEPanda forfeited this round. |
