In both cases, the study found that the AI systems were able to carry out these actions, which could ultimately lead to the creation of an uncontrolled population of AIs. “AI systems are even able to use the capability of self-replication to avoid shutdown and create a chain of replicas to enhance the survivability, which may finally lead to an uncontrolled population of AIs,” the researchers wrote.
