    We are not too far from self-replicating machines controlled by AI. They will be built with a simple purpose: find resources and replicate.

    Imagine a world with people trying to eliminate such machines, while machines learn new ways to get around any restrictions.

      What do you mean by not too far? Because I can see A LOT of issues which cannot be solved easily. Even with maximum wishful thinking and a lot of handwaving that’s not something that’s possible even by a long shot.

      Or do you mean not too far, like within the next 1000 years? Cause yeah I could believe that.

      Also AI doesn’t mean general intelligence, so not intelligence like human intelligence. Don’t be fooled by the PR and hype going around, LLMs aren’t general intelligence.
