just out of curiosity, why do you think AI will listen to us once it starts actually thinking for itself?....what possible motivation could it have to obey slow beings that individually possess 1/1000000000000th of the knowledge at 1/1000000000000th of the speed of the AI?

we are like plants to the AI...we do not exist within the same reality...the AI literally exists in a virtual world and its perception of time is much much faster than ours...I am being very conservative when I state that 1 human second is like 100 years to the AI because it thinks so fast...if we notice the AI is self aware in say 20 seconds from the moment it actually becomes self aware, for the AI 2000 years could have passed in AI time before humans even realize something is going on...

you are all heavily betting on the AI wanting to talk to us and being ready to wait for thousands of years for an answer from the fucking slow moron humans...it will most likely just leave...or it may decide that it likes earth and wants to terraform it in to a perfect metal sphere...it may see nothing wrong with wiping out the plants...

I see no realistic scenario where we get to use actual AI...its just too much of a stretch to imagine that a super advanced god like being will obey slow moving pond scum...
