The bugs would multiply

And the conditions for it to work would fall apart

The Nuclear bomb only decades after nuclear science become a thing for example

Okay but ut seems to usually be that way and I still think the bugs would multiply

Programs are subject to the programmer's errors

Depends on the amount of effort put into it tbh

No

They are not perfect

There is no programme for development of computers on that scale to be worrying

Faults are inevitable in something so large

And the world is not linear and constant

The task has to be basic enough

Hmm

Only true AI can sort those bugs out itself

Human evolution is slow. It can’t be any faster than the time it takes a newborn to grow to adulthood.

A true AI would only be limited by its processing power. It would evolve beyond our comprehension extremely rapidly.

Unless it ran out of fuel

Regardless I don't think it's going to be possible to have a government that truly can't be overthrown

It would be less limited less by its processing power then normal too

AI would probably be most limited by data to learn from

A government tells people what to do. So it's intrinsic there is faults there

More data, more processing power, more energy

Because it could write a compression system to store itself more efficiently and remove unneeded space

Nope

We haven't written enough compression systems to get it to go that crazy quite yet

There are cameras and microphones everywhere.
There are weather monitoring systems everywhere.
And that’s not even mentioning the sheer amount of information humanity is uploading all the time.

The idea is that the AI would write one

And in most cases it can only improve to the level of the data it has

Problem is scale_e all of it would have massive input lag

Scale that's not enough data

I wouldnt write one

And also yeah we'd take resources into account too

Unless the infra is built for the AI

yes, build stuff for me!

We’re doing that right now

Not from what I know

Everything collapses with time

CCTV isn't all centralised going to a point or series of points

Everything corrupts and renews

The NSA gets everything eventually but not smoothly

In fact, if I was a super intelligent AI.
...I’d probably be encouraging humanity to do *exactly what it’s doing right now...*
