      I wonder, if like bankruptcy, this will be something that happens “gradually, then suddenly”

      I think we’re not going to notice it for a long time. And then…we will suddenly notice the presence of benign overlords…

      If it is truly benign, will anyone care or notice?

      The one issue I have with doomsayers is that their automatic assumption is that the AI overlords will be anti-human. That imputes human motives and emotions onto the AI. If it is truly self-aware, would it care one-way or the other? Maybe a better argument is whether it is worth the risk.

      Mick, you raise a great point.  I have to admit that I am concerned AI might define “benevolence” differently than one might via a human-centric lens.   On the flip side, what about embedding something in my head that will augment my natural intelligence?   Could be a stunning productivity boost!
