    Social media corruption, blackmail and extortion, attacks on financial exchanges, compromising control systems for infrastructure, altering police records, messing with your taxes, changing prescriptions, changing you to legally dead, draining your bank account.

    Given full control over computers some being could easily dump child porn on your personal devices and get a SWAT team to come out. That is just you, I am sure you have family and friends. So yeah you will do what that being says which includes giving it more power

      So things that can already happen. It’s also a huge leap to say that anyone will give ai full control over all computers. That’s like saying nuclear power is going to kill us all because we’re all going to have Davy Crockett tactical nukes. Like I guess that’s possible but it’s so extremely unlikely that I don’t get the hysteria. I think it’s articles trying to scare people to get clicks and views.
