If you can scan city schematics, maps, learn about civil and structural engineering through various textbooks and plot a subway bombing in an afternoon, you're a faster learner than I am.

Let me be clear: everyone in the world is about to have a Jarvis/Enterprise ship's computer/Data/name-your-assistant available to them, but ready and willing to use their power for nefarious purposes. It is not just a matter of reading books. It lowers the barrier on a lot of things, good and bad, significantly.

Crimes are crimes the person commits. Planning an attack is a crime. Building a model to commit crimes is probably akin to planning an attack, and might itself be a crime. But the thought that researchers and the every man have to be kept away from AI so globo mega corps can protect us from the AI enabled Lex Luthor is absurd. The protections against criminal activity is already codified in law.

Like books!

Yes, I understand your analogy.

I am not endorsing restrictions. I was merely stating the fact that this shit is coming down the pipe, and it /will/ be destabilizing, and just because society survived the printing press doesn't mean the age of AI will be safe or easy.

But at least Alexa will be able to order ten rolls of toilet paper instead of ten million reams of printer paper

For a minute there I misread Jarvis as Jarvik
