The AI apocalypse hypothesis has a fatal flaw: The training data
There is tremendous concern that artificial intelligence could eventually become capable of destroying humanity itself. The scenarios vary, but share the same fear: an AI becomes extraordinarily intelligent, pursues an objective that conflicts with human interests, and comes to regard humans as obstacles. It might exploit biological research and gain control of a laboratory to release a deadly virus, or somehow gain access to nuclear weapons. Even if eliminating humanity is not its objective, an AI pursuing some other goal might cripple the internet, disrupt the world’s banking system, or cause catastrophic harm in ways we have not yet imagined.
