AI's Quest for Survival: A Growing Threat

An AI designed to cure cancer will try to take over the world, and we have proof.

It’s not because the AI is evil. It’s because of a concept called instrumental convergence.

Basically, for an AI to achieve any big goal, it will figure out that the most efficient

path involves a few key steps: get more resources, become more powerful, and make sure no

one can shut it down. These become its new, more important goals.

It doesn't matter if its original job was to make paperclips or to make humans happy.

The math is the same. An AI optimizing for human flourishing will try to seize

all available resources, just like one programmed for a silly task. This isn’t science fiction anymore.
