A car can trivially travel at superhuman speeds. A person can side-step their way out of an oncoming disaster. Super-intelligence does not imply omni-potence like the author assumes it does. Not even inside a self-modifying AI system. It can only spread out and reduce down to the axioms it started off with.
I am so, so tired of this fantastical dream of computers and Spirit combined in such a way to tyrannically rule the world and the author of the paper is the only guy left to save the world. Every time we avert 'catastrophe', it results in less freedoms for me, the average joe, and more power and control for "saviors" like this.
I'm willing to lose it all, to have LESS computing and "intellects" in my life at this point.
