Uncontrolled mutation of super-intelligent machines may lead to the
destruction of humanity
Abstract
If in future, the highly intelligent machines control the world, then
what would be its advantages and disadvantages? Will, those artificial
intelligence powered superintelligent machines become an anathema for
humanity or will they ease out the human works by guiding humans in
complicated tasks, thereby extending a helping hand to the human works
making them comfortable. Recent studies in theoretical computer science
especially artificial intelligence predicted something called
‘technological singularity’ or the ‘intelligent explosion’ and if this
happens then there can be a further stage as transfused machinery
intelligence and actual intelligence where the machines being immensely
powerful with a cognitive capacity more than that of humans for solving
‘immensely complicated tasks’ can takeover the humans and even the
machines by more intelligent machines of superhuman intelligence.
Therefore, it is troublesome and worry-full to think that ‘if in case
the machines turned out against humans for their optimal domination in
this planet’. Can humans have any chances to avoid them by bypassing the
inevitable ‘hard singularity’ through a set of ‘soft singularity’. This
paper discusses all the facts in details along with significant
calculations showing humanity, how to avoid the hard singularity when
the progress of intelligence is inevitable.
