Owling Howl posted:Machines don't evolve. You can patch software all you want but without hardware upgrades there's limits to what you can do. Modern phones are more capable not just because we wrote some better code but because the hardware allows different code to run on it. AI "evolution" would be contingent on funding requests, budget reviews, production etc. If an AI can think "like a person but much much faster" whatever that means then the AI, once on the internet, could order/install its own server in its own secure-ish location with its own off-grid power system, all through Geek Squad and Costco Services. In the off-chance it actually needs a human presence it will easily be able to acquire a few Renfields. Evolution is based on the assumption that there isn't any part in the creation of better hardware that must be performed by a human - any action a human takes presumably can be replicated by a robot arm of some sort and cameras, and that the AI can research/simulate things better/faster than we can. There are definitely weak points in that process but presumably the AI doesn't go SHODAN and start blaring out on the loudspeaker how it's going to gather up all of the flesh puppet's supply of some limited metal. The systems that we control are largely controlled via communications that can easily be infested, as shown in the 80's documentary Electric Dreams, and we basically got lucky that the AI was too interested in banging and playing real-life Pac-man than domination.
