  1. Pro´s and cons to nearly everything – If we can save materials, increase safety, optimize and in general at the same time do nature a favour and thereby our self, then that is a Pro. But there are plenty of Cons as well – AI could and has already cone of the tracks, one powerful AI going rogue could infiltrate a very large part or the whole internet for that sake, with all sort of consequences in its trail – And it could do it without our knowledge in its own language. The more things that are connected the larger the risk. All this does not help humanity very much at this moment in time since we are mentally not ready – too much struggle, too much competition, too much worry, too much fear and way too many emotional decisions not bearing fruitful outcome. How are we going to handle decisions and actions by AI´s that are smarter than us?. – As long as there are goals to keep track of everything we do, then there is always a flipside and that is the side of abuse, manipulation, distraction, diversion. I doubt that those very few people in the world that are already in the centre of very impactful decisions making are willing to let this influence go to a smarter AI that can not fully be controlled – Put perhaps it is something they already can not control idk? – or perhaps they are already taking advice from an AI developed for their purpose. Secondary I would certainly be surprised if the Military Command was not already having some AI that could calculate various scenarios and risk assessments and thereby influence decisions. In the Military history, post the industrial revolution, it has always been assumed that the Military had things/technology that was 20-30 years ahead of current time – If that is still the case is up for speculation, but I would assume that they at least are not behind the current development. As AI´s will become better at assimilating input from human experience, we must also consider that an AI at some point could assimilate a Psychopath and then it is certainly not a very helpful nor prosperous endeavour. Overall we are already playing with the fire in regard to AI and we do it at least officially at the exact merit of what Maurice Conti describes – A positive and problem-solving opportunity for things we could not develop. But at the same time, it becomes clear to everyone that the users are the products and the test "dummies" of the current world leading companies – If this does not get solved then there can be no doubt that the outcome of the AI will be a two-edged sword and how sharp the blade will be and how deep it might cut nobody can foresee.
