I totally agree with this guy. Regulation is futile, you can't regulate at a micro level in all the parts of the world. If you can't properly regulate drug trafficking in Santa Monica how do you plan to regulate a couple of scientists hidden in the soviet tundra?
IMHO it's inevitable our encounter with an AI, even if that AI is a superhuman with augmented capabilities, or derives from an arms race (like the Manhattan Project).. So I already posted a possible solution: wait for it with EMPs in place... (Just in case)
