Part 7/9:
Addressing these overwhelming risks requires a radical shift in our current trajectory. The research advocates for the construction of secure and manageable AI systems that can meet humanity's needs without the perils institutionalized by AGI. One proposed solution is transitioning to "Tool AI," capable of optimizing tasks without achieving full autonomy or consciousness. These systems can help advance humanity without the paradox inherent in creating superintelligent entities.
Moreover, stringent regulations could enforce accountability across AI firms, disallowing untrammeled development without oversight. AI chips could be denominating assets, with mechanisms in place to prevent misuse through hardware-based security measures.
