Could AI wipe out humans and how might it do it?

This post was originally published on this site.

Recent AI (artificial intelligence) safety concerns have been fuelled by stark warnings from AI scientists about the growing risks of the technology going rogue.

Some of the most pessimistic predictions warn that there is a greater than 10% chance that AI could wipe out all humans in the next 10 years.

Cyber Correspondent Joe Tidy looks at some of the scenarios being imagined and assesses how likely they are.
