Success in creating AI would be the biggest event in all of human history. It might also be the last, unless we learn how to avoid the risks.
I fear that AI may replace humans altogether. If people design computer viruses, someone will design AI that improves and replicates itself. This will be a new form of life that outperforms humans.
We only have to look at ourselves to see. How intelligent life might develop into something, we would not want to meet.
If a superior alien civilization sent us a message saying: “We will arrive in a few years.” Would we just reply: “Okay, call us when you get here. We will leave the lights on”? Probably not. But, this is more or less what is happening with AI.

I think if this technology goes wrong, it can go quite wrong. The bad case, and I think this is like important to say, is like lights out for all of us. “
– Don’t worry, they wouldn’t build it if they thought it might kill everyone.
– But Doctor, I AM building Artificial General Intelligence.
