A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Please don't post about US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

I think that the idea of being able to turn it off is a bit naive. Intelligence is a spectrum and I don't think humans are anywhere near the far end of it. We severely underestimate how smart a true super intelligence would be. It's a bit like you hearing your kids plotting a plan to steal the cookie jar thinking they're going to outsmart you except that compared to an artificial super intelligence an adult is just slightly more intelligent than a child. We'd basically be like ants to it.
Even if it's no more intelligent than us it'll still be much faster. Communicating with humans would be like watching a tree grow. Imagine you having thousands of years time to consider your answer to any question presented to you.
