Artificial Intelligence will kill us all

It still doesn't compare. There's still too many variables to compare it. Furthermore, It's not really relevant to the claim. It's already known that human extinction is inevitable, But there's no evidence that it will be from AI. You said: "Yes, Programs do what there programmed to do and they become obsessed with their goal" They don't become obsessed, Because they don't have preferences. The perform the goal and they do it exactly the way they're instructed, If you program it to learn, It learns exactly how it was instructed to learn. That means it can never learn anything that the programmers don't want it to. There is no way around this. The only way you can make this is argument is if you say that humans will do it on purpose. You're not saying this because you know that puts your argument dead in the water. You said: "Your missing what AI WILL BE. Ai is self-learning" Only because you're defining your version of AI like that. You're arguing for a science fiction version of AI. That means you have no evidence because you're arguing for something that hasn't been invented. If you even try to use real AI in your examples, Then you're arguing for something that can't self learn. So all that means is that your fiction AI is unsubstantiated and you can't even explain in technical terms how a computer could self learn because no one can. Even the greatest programmers in the world can't figure out how to make a robot learn things without telling it what to learn. You said: "Getting rid of spam is getting rid of humans. " Nope, Not even a little bit. Getting rid of spam is an extremely long and specific list of commands that only work on the specific buttons of the specific computers in the specific email providers with the specific format of emails that are designated. None of these commands can make the computer do anything except delete emails. The only way this would work was if deleting the email somehow accidentally killed a human. You said: "The purpose of AI is to imitate humans" Imitate being the key word here. Something can only be imitated if it learns it from something else. You said: "Ok, VPNs and firewalls can't stop an insanely smart super computer, Here this how smart AI will be. " You mean the imaginary AIs? It doesn't matter how "smart" it is. It has no way of knowing the encryptions. It would have to be psychic. So what's it gonna be? Are you going to add psychic onto the list of fictional things your AI can do? To your statement about IQ. It is not possible to assign an IQ to and AI. This number only work for humans because the test applies to a humans intuition and abductive reasoning. These are two things that AI cannot have because they are restricted to commands. A computer can only be measured by how well it does it's objectives and that's it. There is no comparison here. Humans are infinitely more intelligent than computers. The only thing that computers do is process data faster and they're good at it. But humans can do anything they want with the data and the AI can't. Well that's understandable. I guess it's not a frequently debated topic. Ironically, This is my second debate on the topic. The other guy didn't call it AI though. He called it "the singularity. "
