As long as human beings have control of the energy grid and the physical world, how are AIs going to outcompete us in a way detrimental to our interests ?
Last case scenario we can always find them and delete them. ?
At historical rates of power-efficiency scaling (which haven't changed much in the past 10 years either) ... by 2040 we'll have the currently estimated computational power of a human brain (~1 exaflop) running on a 20Watt processor, which is about as much as an iPhone CPU uses.
It's not guaranteed that some AI supercomputer will be using megawatts of electricity and couldn't siphon what it needs from small parasitic loads.
