AI Wants to Kill You? The Mathematical Paradox of a Rogue Machine

Year: 2026

Type: preprint

Abstract: The world is terrified of artificial intelligence. We are bombarded with headlines warning us that AI will go rogue, that it will develop its own agenda, and that it might eventually want to kill us. The public demands that tech companies "align" these systems, put guardrails in place, and guarantee that the machines remain perfectly under human control. But this fear—and the demand for perfect control—reveals a fundamental ignorance of how artificial intelligence actually works.
