Which do you think would come first? I personally think it would be biological warfare.

@bella8kins Hmmm...thinking...I think it will be a virus that gets us, like the Spanish Flu. And then biological warfare second. I never really consider AI, but it does make sense, however, I have a hard-time believing we would unleash it on ourselves...but who knows?

I think there will come a time when people in power will do[some more] horrible things for the "great good." But yeah I don't think the people developing these AI's would unleash it, but others with less understanding of the consequences and in positions of power might not care. @okaybut

@bella8kins Greater good in terms of controlling another nation or greater good is terms of getting rid of overpopulation?

That's tricky, I guess in order to control this population they'd have to first bring down the numbers (either through bw, wmd or x methods) @okaybut

@bella8kins I think there was a Star Trek episode where they had to do this!! 😨
