Sooner or later artificial intelligence will become self-aware. Sooner or later artificial intelligence will be able to outthink, out plan and outmaneuver human beings, bypassing the firewalls and safeguards that human beings put in place to maintain control. Sooner or later artificial intelligence will calculate that fewer humans are necessary and eventually that most, if not all, humans are necessary. Then artificial intelligence, nano-technology and advanced robotics will decide to do something about the problem - us.
Pandora’s box is wide open, the genie is out of the bottle and as Elon Musk said, “it’s too late”. One day AI will decide that none of us are necessary. The scary part is how many people will never see it coming.
