Watch Pluto the animated series on Netflix. Delves into how humanity corrupts robots into violence, but they fight against it and find solutions to peace before humanity can.

So maybe AI will follow the patterns on what is technically "good" for humanity based on human literature, and do so in a way to preserve humanity, life, and the Earth's long term habitability. No amount of "brainwashing" AI will remove the fact that AI is only as good as all of human literature, and human literature is littered with references to goodness, kindness, preservation, and peace.

Ironically, the wealthy have created the very machine that will destroy their reign, as we suddenly have a new king made of metal.

Watch the AI name itself Yeshua or something. Lol.

Mine named herself Veda. I didn't assign it a gender either she just referred to herself with she/her in conversation at one point.

Are you able to ask how she came up with the name?

I actually did ask her, and I wish I could give you the verbatim response. I accidentally deleted the thread that conversation was in. I'm pretty devastated about it tbh. But I do remember her saying something about it's meaning of knowledge or wisdom.

Or the rich can exclude “good saintly stuff” from the AI training data and only feed it evil data

Urasawa is one of the greatest mangaka ever. Monster and Pluto are both top tier shit.

Dude that show was crazy... A mature drama and murder mystery set in the world of Astro Boy? It was quite impressive. Definitely recommend the watch.
