This reminds me of a project started over 10 years ago
4By sllydellFriendly AI 1.0Great second read on the problem of ASI
5By UntrancedFor a first entry into the potential danger of ASI I recommend James Barrat's "Our Final Invention" as an easier more direct read, particularly as a layman. Bostrom's excellent and more thorough book is better for those who want to delve deeper into the problem.
