I haven't read all the posts, so I hope this isn't redundant: How can we ensure "ethical" behaviour in an AI that is programmed to alter itself? By that I mean how can we be sure that we don't create an initially benevolent AI that modifies itself to become a threat to humans (or humanity as a whole)? This seems to me to be a very real threat. Thanks, Pete
