Jürgen Schmidhuber Watch posted an update
Jürgen Schmidhuber argues that superintelligent AI could begin reshaping the solar system through self-replicating, self-improving robot factories. It is a striking vision of AI extending into robotics and space, rather than remaining a clever box on a desk.
Why it mattersSchmidhuber says he has considered the idea since the 1970s and points readers to a section of a reference he cites. The post offers no timetable or new technical evidence, so this is a long-running prediction, not a report of an emerging capability.
Discuss: If AI could build its own factories, what should matter more: the engineering that makes it possible, or the safeguards that would keep it under human control?
