AI will never become smart enough to threaten us. In order for that to happen, we first have to build an AI capable of doing so -- and we are not smart enough to do that.

You just have to set up the framework and let machine learning do the rest. You basically have to define it's goals, its goal being a hardwired inclination to fit in with humanity.

Take engaging with a person with eye contact. You hard wire a natural ability to calculate what a pair of eyes are looking at and give it the red flag that they're looking at you, then they sort out what that means by observing social interaction.

I've seen most attempts at ai and I can say I've yet to see all of our technology put together. Neural networks are a new technology.

By definition, a machine can only do what it is programmed to do. It cannot "learn and grow" beyond the capacities of what we want it to do or what it is made to do. It would take a Godlike ability to manufacture a machine that essentially functions as a human mind, and if hypothetically we had the ability to do so, we would be smart enough to also create a preventative to it ever going wrong.
I'm honestly surprised by how many people believe AI can and will take us over. It's easy to be dazzled by our advancing technologies and perfectly human to imagine how impressively it will improve, but people have always thought this way. Keep in mind, back in the 1980s they thought we'd have flying cars and self-lacing shoes by now. "AI will enslave us" is the modern day equivalence of that absurdity, and nothing more.

I also have shinies for trade in exchange for a Pokemon I want.
