Journal of Geoethical Nanotechnology

Implications of Adaptive Artificial General Intelligence, for Legal Rights and Obligations

Peter Voss

page 7 of 7

Powerful A.G.I.’s will arrive long before significant intelligence augmentation, before we can improve ourselves. So we will need A.G.I. to upgrade ourselves to improve our wetware. Legal issues will revolve around limiting the production and use of A.G.I.’s rather than protecting A.G.I.’s. And legal mechanisms will be largely ineffective.

Considering all of these implications, how do we prepare for A.G.I.? I am very keen to put something together. I already have a group of people that have started pulling together to think about these things. At our company, we have a core group of advisors who are trying to think ahead and guide this technology in the best possible way that we can. It is an exciting time for us, for all of us.
