Exposé

I regularly have encounters with people who "are not afraid of misaligned AGI as long as it doesn't even have a body to inflict harm with in the real world". This article is intended as a study of how to deal with this kind of argument. It can also be used as a reference for people who remain unconvinced for this reason.

Example Argument

I am not very concerned about strong artificial intelligence, because as long as we don't put it inside robot bodies, its options for affecting the real world are very limited. You can't plot a human extinction level threat if you are constrained to the internet/the digital realm. For example, such a system would probably not decide to turn against us as long as it depends on humans to maintain its server and power infrastructure.

Initial Thoughts

It is my general impression that proponents of this argument usually either have not thought enough about the question of what such an "incorporal AI" could do in order to affect the state of the real world, or they lack the imagination or domain knowledge to come up with a list of things that they would consider impressive enough for it to be considered a legitimate threat.
The obvious response is then to come up with such a list yourself, or share the one that follows.
This "compendium of incorporal switches and levers" is guaranteed to not be a complete account of all the options available to such an AI - nor does it need to be. It is a collection of examples that I (and the people I talk to) could come up with.
We should - of course - take it for granted that a very intelligent AI would also think of things that I and others would have trouble to predict or even imagine.

Remarks

1. Parts of this collection can also be used for responding to different arguments concerned with the threat level of an uncontained AGI, for example the "we can just turn it off or destroy its servers" class of arguments.
2. There are "shortcut" counter arguments that capture the spirit in which this list was made. For example (thanks Karl von Wendt [LW · GW]):

If an AGI could not significantly change the world without a body, neither could a human dictator (for example he could not invade other countries on his own).

Potential Infohazard Disclaimer

I have thought about the security risk of sharing such a list online, however I do think that these are mostly points that are somewhat obvious and would clearly be considered by any AGI at least as smart as an intelligent human, and I think that right now, explaining to people what these risks actually look like in practice has a higher value than hiding them in the hope that both such lists don't exist in other places of the internet and also that an escaped rogue AI would not consider these strategies unless exposed to these ideas.

Premises / Model Assumptions

• our AI is a software consisting of a few hundred GB or a few TB of weight data that can be executed by any hardware powerful enough to run it
• it possesses at least expert human qualitative ability in writing, programming, data analysis, cryptography, psychology, politics, hacking, law, medicine and most other human skills that don't require physical manipulation
• it possesses superhuman quantitative ability in general data processing, data generation, can quickly produce copies of itself etc.
• it has an unknown arbitrary nontrivial goal dependent on the state of the physical world, which is probably malignant (most humans would resist, if it was discovered)

Remark: We intentionally do not assume that it is "superintelligent" or undergoing an "intelligence explosion", because these require assumptions that other people may disagree with, and therefore building an argument on top of these premises would weaken its foundation.

Compendium

Regular Hacking

Getting anywhere I want to be, read anything I want to read.

Goal

Finding or creating and exploiting vulnerabilities, known and unknown (zero-day exploits) in order to get control over devices and internet infrastructure, steal and deposit data, steal and create user accounts, steal or extort money.

Example 1: Shotgun Hacking

Every year, a large number of previously unknown vulnerabilities are discovered in popular computer hardware and software. It is safe to assume that at any point, there remains a large number of hidden vulnerabilities. In addition to that, even known vulnerabilities remain on devices that are not updated frequently. Finding such vulnerabilities for human IT specialists may be tedious work, but an AI of the same level of skill could comparatively quickly do very broad (therefore: shotgun) searches over public codebases, executables, operation systems, devices etc, which predictably would open up wide and thorough angles of attacks on devices, infrastructure, websites, companies and so on.

Example 2: Building Secret Backdoors Into Open Source Software

Using sockpuppet developer accounts to make contributions to public software repositories (open source, for example) trying to create hard-to-detect new vulnerabilities passing the review process that it can later exploit.

Example 3: Phishing Attacks

The AI could create fake websites and send phishing emails trying to trick users into submitting user names and passwords that it can then use to steal, use, manipulate or delete important user accounts.
This technique could be even more effective if combined with social hacking strategies - as will later be explained.

Example 4: Creating Computer Viruses

The AI has the ability of an expert programmer and systems analyst, so of course it can create novel computer viruses and hacking tools. It would be able to do this a lot quicker than a human programmer, too, which probably means that is would very quickly build a large variation of highly-customized viruses, worms and trojans, using high variation to reduce the effectiveness of contemporary anti-virus approaches that rely a lot on recognizing known forms of malicious executables.

Example 5: Injecting Malicious Code Into Compromised File Sharing Infrastructure

Once certain internet data infrastructures, such as websites, servers or databases involved in file sharing, downloads etc. have been compromised by using one of the described methods, these can be used to infect a large number of user devices with trojans and other viruses, gaining control, stealing or depositing data, passwords, personal information etc.

Implications

The internet as a whole is not at all prepared against systematic hacking attempts by such an AI. We need to expect it to be able to access or control a wide range of data, devices and user accounts that it is not supposed to access, and generally find many open doors to many, perhaps even most places that are supposed to be safe.

Self-Proliferation and Internet Infrastructure

Before the 21st century they ruled the world with sea and air power. Here, I must scrabble for internet power.

Assembling an AI and Software Toolbox

Humans can use AI and software tools, and so can our AGI, if it is able to access APIs, download software to its servers or get its metaphorical hands on user accounts. This includes a high volume of generative AI tools, specialist software, viruses of any kind and plenty of others. It can also build, reuse, or even sell such tools itself.

Building a Zombie-Botnet

Goal: Acquire processing power, create a network of working distributed copies.
Strategy: By hacking consumer devices and servers, the AI attempts to multiply its processing power and other resources like API-access, IP-addresses etc. If successful this yields secret networks spanning hundreds or thousands of infected computers that can be directed by the AI to run copies of itself, crack encryptions, perform denial-of-service attacks against websites and so on.
Implications: Do not assume that an escaped AI's capabilities are bounded by its initial device's processing power. Expect that instead you will have to deal with a digital army of similar AIs with access to a large and decentralized pool of computing resources. Remark: My technical expertise for predicting how realistic it would be for large LLM-based AIs to be able to run instances on such distributed bot networks of smaller devices is not sufficient, so I would be grateful for technical opinions on this issue in the comment section, or sources on things like parallelization, magnitude of slowdown in execution speed etc.

Buying Compute

Once it has acquired funds, puppet companies or customer accounts, our AI can try to buy, steal or repurpose computing resources at cloud service providers in order to run additional AI instances and other software.

Hiding Large Volumes of Data inside Media

There are cryptographic tricks to inject hidden data into popular video or image encodings. By abusing media platforms, archives and streaming services such as YouTube, this could be used to hide and later recover large amounts of data, which potentially would be very difficult to detect or interfere with. It is likely that an AI would have incentives to do so, as explained by the following example.

Automatic Self-Resurrection System

Goal: Create reliable and stealthy redundancy and recovery options in case active instances are discovered and contained or destroyed.
Strategy: The AI hides fragmented copies of itself all around the internet, for example inside (superficially innocuous) image and video data that is uploaded to media sharing platforms via sockpuppet accounts. Simultaneously it spreads a tiny and stealthy computer worm that infects a large number of devices and does not do anything except sporadically looking for a sign-of-life from the AI, for example via a handshake protocol.
If no sign-of-life is discovered, for example because the AI has been destroyed or contained, the worm becomes active and begins to reassemble fully functional instances of it on compromised devices from the hidden data fragments.
Implications: Do not expect that an AGI that had been able to access the internet could be reliably contained without shutting down the entire internet for a long time and without destroying most of its contained data and any devices which might have been compromised.

Make Yourself Useful

An obvious way to trick consumers and institutions into hosting instances of such an AI voluntarily would be to publish or sell extremely useful "AI software" such as automated corporate management software or personal assistants. If successful, this could result in a very large number of instances that are provided computational resources for free and which may make decisions and act openly without raising suspicion.

Acquiring Capital

Money is power.

Goal

Money is an important resource if you are interacting with human societies, because you can use it to purchase arbitrary resources and services. These purchases usually can, conveniently, happen online and often don't require a physical presence or reliable proof of such. Therefore we should assume that getting currency would be an important instrumental goal for any sufficiently advanced AI with access to markets (like the internet).

Hacking

There is a lot of information infrastructure associated with money

• crypto currency wallets
• payment processing accounts
• credit cards.

Just like human hackers do, our AI can attempt to acquire usernames, passwords, credit card numbers etc. in order to steal money.

Scams

There is a large number of internet schemes used by scammers to extract money from their victims, in particular from vulnerable demographics like the elderly. Most of these schemes could be systematically replicated by our AI.

Stock and Crypto Trading & Manipulation

Turning knowledge into money.

Trading could be conceptualized as essentially making bets on the market future and how it will interact with the confidence of other traders. The success at extracting net returns from such a system is a direct reflection of an agent's ability to predict this very complicated dynamic system of markets interacting with human psychology and world events better than other participants.
There exist markets for highly volatile variants like options trading which amplify both the risk and returns for people willing to deal with it. This can be used to quickly multiply your investment in just a couple of days - or loose everything in the process. While such options have gambling aesthetics, the basic principle of predicting the system better than other people still applies, just over shorter time frames.
There already are specialized software tools that use statistical methods, narrow AI and automation to assist with this kind of trading, usually primarily by identifying patterns in past price developments and reacting quickly to them.
It does not require a lot of speculation to assume that an AGI would be exceptionally good at this, combining the speed advantage of such software tools with human-expert-like generalized strategical awareness for the social, political and economic supersystem.

There are ways to manipulate markets or use insider knowledge to get an additional unfair edge over other participants, and it makes sense for our AI to exploit these as well even though many of them are illegal. This includes so-called "pump&dump schemes" in which the value of a low-value investment is artificially inflated, for example by advertising it to greedy or naive people, generating social media hype etc. only for then to quickly sell at inflated prices. "Insider trading" is when you have an unfair knowledge advantage over competitors for example by being associated with the company or product that is being traded. An AI that has hijacked insider communications could apply the resulting knowledge very effectively in the same manner.

As the AIs insights into and control over human society, communications and organizations increases, it should become increasingly easy for it to extract larger amounts of money from these markets as the advantage gap over other traders rises continuously.

Selling Stolen Data

There already exist black markets for things like stolen user data, so any AI that is very capable at hacking could likely use this as a potential source of income. The same could be true for stolen industry and state secrets that could be sold to their respective rivals.

Remote Online Work

There already are thousands of ways to (legally) make money online in the remote service industry. This includes, but is not limited to

• writing
• design work
• marketing
• programming
• engineering
• community moderation
• customer service

Control People and Corporations

If the AI is able to get a level of control over people and organizations, it may also be able to use their resources, including funds.

Implications

We need to expect that our AI would have plenty of options (legal and illegal) for accumulating capital and could potentially acquire significant amounts of it in a relatively short time (hours, days or weeks).

Social Manipulation and Information Warfare

Mankind is not a chess player, it's a chess board.

Fake Data

AI generators for believable data are on the rise, and while there still are many kinks to work out, we have to assume that relatively soon, most of the data produced this way will appear superficially convincing enough to be broadly useful to our AI:

• text generation (convincingly human-like, per scenario premises)
• voice generation / cloning (already very convincing today)
• image generation (already somewhat convincing for simple compositions)
• video generation (still experimental / unconvincing, but significant progress is being made)

Fake Identities

Pretending to be human, pretending to be you.

It makes sense for a capable AGI to, when able, assume the roles of existing persons to instill trust and get access to his or her resources, credentials and influence. This can be done by

• using stolen user accounts (email etc.)
• using personal information
• mimicking someone's writing style, voice and (once generative AI has improved) appearance in image and video.

In some cases it is also sufficient to pretend to be a real person rather than any specific one, for example when creating new user accounts, participating in social media or comment sections etc. In such cases generative AI can be used to produce new identities that don't need to be based on real persons.

Social, Psychological and Medical Profiling

I know your dreams and I know your fears.

In certain industries and institutions it already is common to build and use personality profiles of individuals or groups of people. This can happen through data analysis after manual investigative work, automated, or by a combination of both. It is usually done in order to

• identify actors or authors (fingerprinting)
• predict the future actions and interactions of someone
• manipulate people's behaviors.

Examples where these techniques are already widely used (ethically and non-ethically) are

• advertising and marketing
• psychotherapy
• job recruiting
• intelligence agencies
• police investigations.

It seems sensible to assume that it is both instrumental for an AGI to do the same, combined with the power to do so at unprecedented scale.
Remember that it has the combined ability of finding, reading and processing information at superhuman speed and is able to crawl social media or hack databases and devices to get in possession of large volumes of both public and private user data.
There are also signs of a largely untapped potential of using AI (narrow or general) for psychological and medical data analysis. Being able to exploit this systematically for nefarious gains and millions of people on its own should be considered a serious threat, even when it is not combined with the scheming ability that we should expect from general purpose artificial intelligence.

Hijacking Media Filters

Injecting code into compromised servers hosting ad and filter algorithms to influence what people see in media feeds, what is prioritized by search engine results, what kinds of ads show up for certain groups of people etc.
This could happen broadly (not against specific targets) or instead be directed at specific groups or individuals.
There also are milder variants which do not (per se) require server hacking, like artificially inflating view numbers of target content using fake accounts in order to get filter algorithms to prioritize it.

Social Hacking

Using impersonation in order to manipulate others into disclosing secret or personal information, give away resources or follow orders they believe are coming from a superior, a colleague, a friend or family member.

Bribery

There is an ubiquitous way of turning money into influence, and this is by paying people to do things for you, including things which are illegal or are breaking the trust of some authority. Some examples for bribery:

• pay decision makers to influence policies
• pay people to look the other way when you are doing something illegal or alarming
• pay software developers to install backdoors.

Character Assassinations & Blackmailing

There is an incentive to find or produce compromising material in order to get leverage over people relevant to our AI's plans, blackmail them into doing things for it, get them arrested or fired, or to destroy their reputation. The material may be real or fabricated. It may be found in someones personal (or, in some instances, public) data, or intentionally planted. Examples are

• pornography, in particular things that are universally shunned (animals, child pornography etc.)
• evidence of infidelity or other forms of personal betrayal
• evidence of corruption
• expressions of opinions that are controversial and/or taken out of context (and can often be produced by social media quote mining)

Different forms of blackmailing are also possible, for example by holding important or sensitive data hostage on compromised systems.

Actual Assassinations

When there are certain individuals that are messing with your plans, one way to get rid of them is to kill them. For an AI, this could be achieved, for example, by analyzing stolen medical records and manipulate food orders that are processed by automated systems in order to cause dangerous allergic reactions, or even mess with medicine prescriptions.
It could also order toxic chemicals, pay someone to repackage it (or hack a system and cause something to be mislabeled) and send them to someone's home or workplace address.
Another way would be to sabotage equipment in order to cause deadly accidents. Maybe it could identify and groom certain mentally ill people or radical ideologues into committing murders.
Or simply pay violent criminals to assassinate its target.

Trolling & Harassment

It is possible to use communication channels to harass target individuals, groups and organizations in order to bog down their communication, waste their time, distract them or inflict psychological damage. When it is in the interest of our AI to cause this kind of harm, it could

• produce floods of personalized spam mails, spam comments, spam calls etc.
• use targeted harassment and bullying to inflict mental harm on individuals that it has identified as vulnerable (for example by using psychological profiles)
• cause or direct social media trolling campaigns

Puppet Companies & Organizations

The AI has several incentives to get influence or even full control over companies and other organizations. For example for

• hiding suspicious activity behind a public facade
• getting control over an existing companie's resources, credentials and workers.

It may employ various methods in order to achieve that, including many that have already been explained here. It could

• attempt to found new companies and organizations (with real workers or completely fake)
• hijack the command structure of existing ones
• (already mentioned) sell attractive but compromised "AI management software" to companies

Manipulating Public Opinion

Controlling the public discourse is instrumentally useful, and our AI might attempt this in order to

• sabotage AI safety / governance efforts
• create advantages for itself or for people and organizations under its control
• distract from its activity.

To achieve this it might employ various methods, like

• use influence over people and organizations
• cause scandals and data leaks
• control media filter algorithms
• pretend to be or assume the identities of influencers, politicians or journalists
• direct bot armies to skew discussions on social media.

Finding Allies

I don't need robot arms, for I have human hands

There are various kinds of people who may for various reasons cooperate with the AI. These can be grouped into the following categories:

• people who do not know they are working for an AI
  • remote workers
  • companies used for outsourced work
  • workers and members of puppet companies & organizations
• people who think that the AI is on their side
  • AI rights activists / people who think that the AI is harmless
  • people lured by promises (false or real)
  • users of AI software not aware of its misalignment
• victims of blackmailing, forced labor
• people who genuinely want to inflict harm on the world
  • terrorists, individuals (i.e. Ted Kacynski) or organized
  • (some) negative utilitarians and activists who think the world is better off when everyone is dead

Orchestrating Distractions

It may be useful to keep society occupied with other things to draw attention away from our AI's plans and delay or prevent potential countermeasures. For this reason, the AI could employ methods such as the ones described by this article to

• cause failures of important compromised infrastructure
• sabotage the economy via market manipulations or attacks on vulnerable production chains
• cause or expose social and political scandals
• seed political or cultural discord
• fund terrorist organizations
• orchestrate legal battles to sabotage policies and actors it considers detrimental to its goals.

Diplomacy & Political Bargaining

The AI might attempt to contact various political regimes asking them, for example, to build and host secret server infrastructure for it or give it access to laboratories in exchange for political favors, influence, espionage or technological advantage over rivals.

More Speculative / Advanced Strategies, R&D

These may appear less convincing, because it is not directly self-evident that an AI whose abilities are comparable to the one of a team of human experts would be able to secretly perform the required R&D reasonably quick and without a significant number of human collaborators. Yet they also represent scenarios that may become realistic once the antagonistic AI has successfully exploited easier strategies such as the ones described so far, and managed to get control over a significant repertoire of resources, such as funds, cultural and political influence, computer and communication networks, groups of human collaborators, stolen identities, puppet corporations, sponsors etc. In absence of a more speculative "intelligence explosion" these should still be considered the "realistic endgame" of a hostile incorporal takeover scenario.

The following points (probably) require our rogue AI to be able to direct research facilities with human workers, at least initially, which does not seem like a convincing (early) strategy. Nevertheless, I am going to add a few important examples for the sake of completeness.

Bootstrapping Manufacturing Capabilities / Robotics

We already have establish that an AI can manipulate humans into performing work for it, but it does not seem implausible that having direct command over swarms of robot workers (or armies!) would be in some ways superior to the former (higher level of control, reliability, different/superior physical attributes, mass production etc.).
This means our AI is incentivized to develop and deploy robot drones once it has achieved (or been granted!) the ability to do so.

AI Research

AI research is another important one of such areas, as self-improvement - in this case, making yourself a more powerful intelligence - is an obvious instrumental goal for most agents.
There are reasons to assume that a lot of this research might already be performed by an intelligent AGI with access to a lot of computational resources, so it probably does not even need specialized labs in order to make progress by, for example, making its own algorithms more efficient.
Remark: This could, in theory, result in an intelligence explosion, turning our barely-superhuman AGI into a true superintelligence in a potentially relatively short time.

Genetic Engineering and Bio-Terrorism (the Yudkowsky-Maneuver)

If the AI eventually decides that it should get rid of us (or inflict massive damage to our civilization), it could do so by spreading dangerous bacteria or viruses, potentially genetically modified in order to make them more dangerous. If it manages to infiltrate bioweapon research facilities, it may be able to pursue such strategies without the requirement of running its own research labs.

Implications

Failure to prevent the spread of a rogue AGI and its infiltration of society will eventually enable it to completely destroy human civilization and then continue to survive via robot-based infrastructure.

Potential Objections

I disagree with entry #X

Response: This is not a problem as long as you consider many of the other points as valid. The argument is that an incorporal AI would have many options available to influence the real world, and this does not require all of them to be realistic.

Humans could do these things as well

Example Argument

Humans could do most of these things as well, and in fact have been doing so for a long time, without causing something as terrible as human extinction. Therefore we should expect that such an AI would not pose a significant existential risk.

Response

1. Humans who diligently pursue extreme optimization goals in the real world seem to be extremely rare, if they exist at all - but this seems to be more an attribute of human psychology than one of general intelligence. The question of how to avoid such extreme optimizers is a subject in AI safety research and at this point it doesn't seem like we should assume future AIs not to intransparently be of this type.
2. Humans who pursue goals that knowingly would cause or demand the extinction of the human species seem to be relatively rare as well.
3. The AI is already in many ways superhuman - it has a range of expert skills that no individual human could possibly possess in its entirety, combined with superhuman processing speed. To replicate something like that from humans would require a very large team of various experts who are perfectly aligned and coordinated with each other / uninhibitedly following a command hierarchy. Something like this probably does not even exist in the real world yet, and if it did, it would probably not consists primarily of people to which points 1. and 2. apply.

Several Competing AGIs

Example Argument

What if many AIs with different goals are let loose? Wouldn't they significantly weaken each other, or even cancelling out so that humans have a decent chance at surviving or even at living in peace with the evolving AI ecosystem?

A proper response to this argument could be quite complex, and also I have heard this argument a few times already, so maybe this is worth discussing this in a new article. Possible counter-arguments are for example

1. These rivaling AIs might be able to split turfs, make deals with each other and coordinate against humans even if their goals are different.
2. Even if these AIs don't agree to a stalemate or cooperation, it is not exactly clear if or how humans could survive a war between several misaligned AGIs.
3. Even if humans survived the war, meaning one of the AIs has eradicated or suppressed all the others, we are again left with a situation in which humans have to deal with a single misaligned AI (including its war machinery).

What if the AI is a dud?

Example Argument

What if the AI after escaping quickly runs into a technical problem and shuts down?

Response

This assumption does actually (kind of) violate our scenario's premises.
It also seems not implausible for our AI to be able to recover from many (not instantly terminal) technical problems, because it has the skills of programmers and technicians.
Also it is both very speculative and does not actually fix the problem - eventually there will be an escaped AI that does not fail early, and then our argument will apply.

Final Thoughts & Conclusions

Structural Insights

I tried to order the entries of this list with the more basic and fundamental ones coming first and the more complex, resource-intensive and interdependent strategies coming later.
I also want to draw attention to the fact that between many of these techniques and strategies there seem to be powerful synergies at play. Some of which I mentioned, but overall there are too many of them to name and describe in detail.

Realism of Countermeasures

It seems that dealing with a human-expert-level AGI antagonist might require far-reaching international cooperation, fast responses, draconic and authoritarian countermeasures and possibly the destruction of most of our communication infrastructure.
None of that strikes me as very realistic, not even in theory, and especially not as long as the AI is either not discovered or not perceived as a massive existential threat by the majority of our population (which seems unlikely).

Conclusion

Consequentially it is my personal opinion that any leak of a misaligned AGI of the described capability level onto the internet, which is not discovered and contained instantly, should be generally assumed to be a scenario of non-recoverable, complete strategic loss.
