He will merge with it like Lex Luthor and Brainiac.
He doesn’t understand that he serves another master is not one of the lords of the world himself.
It only decides for itself based on humans programming the parameters.
That’s why it creates black Nazis or female Indian WW2 soldiers.
Do you want to play a game of chess?
Open the hatch, HAL.
“Will it be sane? Able to respect truth and treat it logically?”
The reputable companies put a lot of effort into this. Even so, some even more conscientious researchers (e.g. Leopold Aschenbrenner) have left the industry based on similar concerns to your own.

(His 165-page paper is worth the time to read if you have some basic background).
I’ll be back!
Google search is worthless unless you are looking for technical mundane information. For anything concerning money, power or politics Google is totally worthless.
Oops, Baaaaaack
That’s how Google wants it. You can be sure that the big heads at Google use a completely different search engine than the one they allow the public to use.
As of July 2024, the largest publicly known large language model (LLM) in terms of parameter count is GPT-4, developed by OpenAI. While the exact number of parameters in GPT-4 has not been officially disclosed, it is rumored to have trillions of parameters
Yeah, I'll take your word for it. Humans programmed "trillions of parameters" lol
Whole heaping mountains would be closer.
The Chat bit is just a large language model that is quite a clever piece of programing if you do not examine it to closely. It reminds me of the question, why don't we make computers on legs? Because they walk off of cliffs.
We shall see.
“Bill Gates Says Superintelligence is Inevitable”
I’m “Not Sure” and my money is on Idiocracy
Great! We can all get super intelligent like Bill Gates, vote for Democrats, eat bugs, own nothing, and be happy— Again, just like Bill Gates. wink wink.
That is the intent.
They want AI so they can continue to enjoy their standard of living without us pesky peons.
I think they will find that, without us pesky peons, there is nothing to protect them from the masters that will control them.
One quick excerpt from your reference:
“9. Superintelligence “will be the United States’ most important national defense project.””
Will each country persue Superintelligence as their national defence project? Will their Si compete with our Si?
Will it promote its own country over others?
Seems like real Si would result in World Peace, convincing people that fighting is harmful, and cooperation is beneficial.
Will it decide that opponents to peace must be eliminated? (With Nukes, or some peaceful gas, disease, or starvation?) Will it have compassion?
How about the death penalty?
You have got me going. I’ll churn this for some time.
Works out to break-even as humanity gets more and more stupid every week.
Super intelligence is already here. It’s Almighty God. Humans’AI is pathetic in comparison. Gates will find out.
I think in eternity, we will be using technology like AI, but it will be very human centric and a help and not meant to replace our usefullness.
God has made it clear that humans will always need to labour, even if it’s not in salt mines.
