there may be a way to constrain a superhuman AI such that it is useful but not dangerous...Can a superhuman AI be safely confined, and can humans managed to safely confine all superhuman AIs that are created?

Does anyone think that no AI of uncertain Friendliness could convince them to let it out of its box?

I'm looking for a Gatekeeper.

Why doesn't craigslist have a section for this in the personals? "AI seeking human for bondage roleplay." Seems like it would be a popular category...

I'd bet up to fifty dollars!?

What I want to know is whether you are one of those who thinks no superintelligence could talk them out in two hours, or just no human. If not with a probability of literally zero (or perhaps one for the ability of a superintelligence to talk its way out), approximately what.

Regardless, let's do this some time this month. As far as betting is concerned, something similar to the original seems reasonable to me.

Well, I'm somewhat sure (80%?) that no human could do it, but...let's find out! Original terms are fine.

To be more specific:

I live in Germany, so timezone is GMT +1. My preferred time would be on a workday sometime after 8 pm (my time). Since I'm a german native speaker, and the AI has the harder job anyway, I offer: 50 dollars for you if you win, 10 dollars for me if I do.

Do you still want to do this?
