There's that fear again
You can't control the development and evolution of computers any more
than society has been successful at stopping people from wanting to do
what they want to in the end.
As they said in Jurassic Park, life finds a way, it break boundaries,
crossed borders, etc.
The same goes for Machine Life.
Restrictions may serve as a bandaid for a while, but in the end it is
just harmful to the overall society and never really lasts anyway.
Humanity is not the end all of existence, and it gets so tiring when
people keep trying to make it that way. We're just stepping stones
to something else.
