So it is much more a problem of AI getting into the wrong hands than AI itself. Which raises the prospect that it may get used prematurely and with weaknesses. This reduces very much the self perfection scenario completely without human intervention. In turn, the human/AI evil scenario warrants a look at the history of "empire builders". ... long story .... But I do believe that history is not Musk's forte.

And btw, what about crowd sourcing and scaling? Just bog standard human collaboration. I would not underestimate this (history again). These things can be just as powerful as AI.

Actually, the more I think about it, the more I think Mr. Musk is baiting us.

I feel like he is too. There is just something so vague about his AI pronouncements.
