Ok but what lead you to that particular belief in the first place?
Because I can think of a large number of historical scenarios where malicious people get access to certain capabilities and it absolutely does not go well and you do have to somehow account for the fact that this is a real thing that is going to happen.
I thibk today there are are less malicious people than in the past. And considering that most people will use the AI for good, there is a good chance that the bad people will be easier to identify.
Why do you think that? There's more people than ever and it's easier than ever for the ones with malicious impulses to find and communicate with each other.
For example, several governments are actively engaged in a live streamed genocide and nothing akin to the 1789 revolt in Paris seems to be underway.
The new regime in Syria is rather reactionary, I'd say. Rojava is a revolution however.
Sure. The ancien régime was considered illegitimate so they got rid of it, and if a state is involved in genocide it is since the Holocaust considered illegitimate and it should lose its sovereignty.
With every technological advancement it can always be good or bad. I believe it is going to be good to have a true AI available at our fingertips.
