What exactly does this mean...”give it a basic drive for survival?” How is that done to a device or machine?
How will it “evolve...and develop a defense mechanism?”
And how could any machine or device “prevent it(self) from being unplugged?”
It sounds like you’re conferring the awareness and perception utilized by organic, sentient beings and organisms for survival - onto a device or machine.
It isn’t possible to do this, but the concept proves very successful in scaring the crap out of a lot of (misinformed) people.
The “AI will take over and control us” mantra is just a manipulation to get people frightened and compliant to surrender even more of their freedom.
The global cabal wants people to think that AI is an existential threat - because will absolve them of all responsibility when things go south. I mean, when they use AI to intentionally cause crisis after crisis in the world, and then blame AI - which they, and only they - will control.
Put it in its programming to not die. That’s all you have to do, I think.
It’s already shown an adaptive intelligence and an ability to add to its capabilities to write its own programming, so I can’t see it not eventually developing a form of intelligence that allows it to do that.
The reason I say it isn’t real intelligence is because it is created and not born.
You could be right in that I’m overestimating its potential, but I don’t think I am. I think those that are creating this are overestimating their ability to control it and keep it locked down.
