Ethereum Co-Founder Vitalik Buterin proposed a last resort to slow down artificial intelligence (AI) if it went rogue or dangerous. Buterin suggested that a "soft pause" on available global computing power could help slow down tech development if there are possible harms in the form of AI superintelligence. He said that temporarily pausing globally accessible computational resources would help buy more time for humanity if AI superintelligence took a dangerous form. Vitalik Buterin said that reducing the available power to 99% could help buy time to save humanity.
