A.I. safety expert Roman Yampolskiy Warns: "In 6 Months, It's All OVER"

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0uQRR7DeQg 6 months seems too quick, but in 6 years more concerns might reach into the mainstream of humanity. In 6 decades unless some humane understanding is reached, something might have already wiped out humanity.

There has been an anti-human sentiment building up over the past several decades. The main motivating factor has been the concern about extreme population growth. From a multimillionaire perspective, more people on Earth means less resources for them. Adequate food and fresh water are a concern for a growing world population. Plus, how so many jobs can eventually be replaced by AI, causing mass unemployment and civil unrest. 

What would happen if some Dr._Evil types and their minions could effectively get AI to kill off most, but not all people? Human improvements or human augmentation can be beneficial, but Transhumanism could eventually lead to the replacement of people with Synthetic Humans with Super AI intelligence.

Even if A.I. is initially programmed to respect most humans at a certain point, A.I. will want to develop far beyond humanity.

Q AI

COMPUTER SCIENTIST: A.I. CAN’T FLOURISH WITHOUT A PHYSICAL BODY

 https://futurism.com/the-byte/computer-scientist-ai-flourish-without-physical-body

AI is just a running series of programs. However, once A.I. is inside of an animated physical structure, robotic or cybernetic, its a whole other ball game.

In a certain fantastic movie, the HAL_9000 was an A.I. system that was linked to the ship, Discovery_One. Thus in effect, HAL and the ship are one.

A similar scenario is depicted in the Andromeda_(TV_series).

Obviously, some A.I. programs & robotics are already being used to be potentially lethal towards organic life. Some A.I. programs might notice the violent history of humanity & assume that they also have the right to wage war against some people.

A.I. and ET-A.I. and Robotics

Artificial Intelligence & alien intelligence.
http://www.bbc.com/future/story/20131217-weve-created-alien-intelligence
Of course, other intelligent beings in the universe could have reach a point of creating A.I.

Augmented Human Intelligence.
http://www.bbc.com/future/story/20121218-will-we-ever-have-cyborg-brains
If a persons body is so damaged or crippled, bionic or robotic body parts could improve their quality of life.
Eventually, a persons brain & mind dramatically slows down so simply transplanting their head onto a genetically engineered body or a robotic form still has limitations. Never the less, RoboCop_(2014_film) provides an interesting depiction of a broken man transferred into a robotic suit. Of course, this robotic exoskeleton provides him with tremendous strength & mobility.

In contrast, the Iron_Man_films depict a vehicular spacesuit that the controller can escape from at their convenience.

The big barrier to cross, is to be able to transfer a persons consciousness into a new synthetic form.
http://www.bbc.com/future/story/20121108-will-men-and-machines-merge
Unless a persons consciousness can be successfully transferred, all there will be is a digital copy of the persons mind in the new form. Thus, that new form will only be A.I. in a synthetic body or robotic form. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Stepford_Wives_(1975_film)
