The Risks of Self-Replicating Super-Intelligent Systems
As we continue to create more intelligent machines, the temptation to create self-reproducing systems becomes greater, leading to potential dangers that should be carefully monitored and prevented. The possibility of bad actors doing dangerous things and the risk of creating a self-replicating system must be avoided.

Summary
The development of self-replicating technology poses a threat to the safety and future of humanity, as it can lead to the creation of dangerous, human-engineered viruses or other deadly pathogens that could wipe out entire populations. Despite this risk, there is still a financial incentive for individuals to pursue self-replication in technology.
