A recent discussion on Reddit’s Artificial Intelligence forum highlights growing concerns about the potential risks of advanced AI systems (ASI). Users are exploring the feasibility of mandatory programming libraries designed to prioritize human survival in AI code. The debate centers on whether explicitly programming AI with a top-priority directive for human safety can effectively mitigate existential threats.
