Then what, in this respect, is the advantage of AI running the show?

Same question.
Quote:I understand those issues exist and should be minimized. However, considering the state of things when humans are running the show, they should not be show-stoppers.
But there are mechanisms in place to prevent these events from being-show stoppers. For instance, in the case of a US president being assassinated, there is a line of succession of eighteen people. How many AI backups could be in place?
But even on a smaller scale, AI in government strikes me as a bad idea. By way of example, where I live we have a Ministry of Disabled People, which - among other things - provides financial assistance for families with disabled children. Imagine this service being administered by AI, and the AI crashes, or is hacked, or is otherwise rendered inoperative. I'm sure that humans would step in to solve the issue and keep services going, but that would also happen if the Ministry was headed by humans in the first place.
I just don't see any advantage.
