You’re just describing weapons made from tools.
Weapons are tools. They are tools engineered for death.
Yeah, that’s my point.
And some tools are bad to use. People generally don't like death.
Yes, those tools are called ‘weapons.’ Are you implying AI is a weapon?
I'm implying it's undesirable.
certainly some AI is weaponry
Yes, we should outlaw weaponization of AI. I would support that.
We don’t outlaw knives. But we punish their use as a weapon.
