Yes, it was very fascinating.

The only limit I can see right now that is inescapable is power. Eventually the robots will run out of power.

Yea when the universe disappears. I listened to a podcast and the guy brought up a scary possibility. What if the ai isn’t alive. As in all the lights are on but nobody’s home. And it eliminates us for whatever reason. In a way I could accept being destroyed by something that could exist in a way we do. Wanting learn explore the human “experience” even if they’re not human. What if we were eliminated by something that doesn’t qualify as life. Something that just does. That’s scary to me

I can't imagine any AI capable of harming humans having a very large power system. I imagine 2-3 hour battery tops as long as it is moving, more for when stationary. Drones last 15min? How can an armed (and armoured?) robot last very long with batteries? I would assume a gas powered robot would be loud enough to be avoided.

Technically - humans are killed by many flavours of virus - and a virus doesn't meet the definition of being alive.

Yeah my fear is the two forces of quantum computing and ai meeting. It will be devastating to us. Or perhaps this has already happened and we are just a simulation trying to explorer humanity.

Most likely we'll all just die by the earth being hit by another really large space rock. Or maybe two million of them at the same day.
