Here is a thoughtful proposal about how to stop advanced AI, specifically Artificial General Intelligence, from becoming superintelligent and killing us all. A well-known top AI researcher has called for preventative measures to bomb data centers which contain the AI data training, and put a hard legal limit on the computational power used in an AGI system.

As a solution, Yudkowsky suggests a moratorium on new large training runs, which should be indefinite and worldwide.
-
He recommends shutting down all the large GPU clusters, which are the large computer farms where the most powerful AIs are refined, and putting a ceiling on how much computing power anyone is allowed to use in training an AI system.
-
Yudkowsky argues that no exceptions should be made for governments and militaries, and that immediate multinational agreements are needed to prevent prohibited activities from moving elsewhere.
-
In order to enforce these regulations, Yudkowsky proposes tracking all GPUs sold, and being less scared of a shooting conflict between nations than of the moratorium being violated. He suggests that rogue data centres should be destroyed by airstrikes if necessary."
