Sooooo…the next update to AI is sociopathy:
Are you familiar with the paperclip problem?
The idea that if you task a sufficiently advanced AI with making paperclips it'll inevitably turn the universe into a collection of paperclips when that is its only goal.

Well that's 30mins of my life I won't get back. Hilarious clicker game.
And a spelling mistake on an ai research paper (papercloppers instead of paperclippers) spawns an entire mlp fanfiction where a game dev accidentally makes an AGI to run an MMO that ends up turning the world into a singularity. Friendship is Optimal, after all.
Give me more paperclips or at least my time back
