AIs are a long way away from even normal intelligence. Currently, they are parrots with dictionaries. They have no insight or real reflection on what they are doing. I am not sure I will see real artificial intelligence in my lifetime.
What people also regularly forget is how insanely inefficient AI is. We need exponential amounts of energy for linear increasement in "AI power" (idk what's the correct term). So to gain twice the power we need 4x the amount of energy to achieve this. Since we are not anywhere near being close to "super intelligence" AI would hit its limit in how much energy we can provide before it even coming close.
Can't Soros just harvest babies and feed the bots adrenochrome?
