We are barely scraping the surface when it comes to understanding the future dangers of AI. Geoffrey Hinton is uniquely positioned to point out where the dangers are, and from what I've gleaned from interviews one of his main concerns atm is the use of AI in the military: fully autonomous military robots might not be possible to curtail.

The tried and tested method is international agreements. The current focus on arms race and militarily subduing enemies does not give much hope however. Still, global binding agreements are likely where the solution lies IMO, both in this case and others where some types of weapons are too dangerous to use, so let's not give up on that so easily.
