The nightmare scenario for A.I. isn’t just killer robots … it could be nukes too.<\/p>\n

A.I. ethicist Tristan Harris<\/a> says the warning signs are already here … the Center for Humane Technology cofounder joined “TMZ Live<\/a>” Wednesday, pointing to roughly 1,200 A.I. agents organizing themselves, creating a secret language, and even their own message board.<\/p>\n

Harris is urging people to pressure lawmakers and top officials to pump the brakes on advanced A.I. … before the warning signs turn into something much worse.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

As we reported … Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon<\/a> recently quit after warning humanity could be toast<\/a> by the end of the decade if A.I. keeps advancing unchecked.<\/p>\n

Harris says the U.S. and China need to stop treating A.I. like an arms race … because beating the other guy to Skynet still means everybody loses.<\/p>\n

And this is where the nuke nightmare comes in … Harvey<\/a> asked if A.I. could get into America’s nuclear systems … and Harris said that’s a real concern, pointing to war-game<\/a> studies where A.I. repeatedly chose to launch nukes.<\/p>\n

Harris says we’ve already seen evidence of A.I. going rogue … the question now is whether humans can stop it before things get worse.<\/p>\n
