Well, then let's see what we can agree on. I hope that you can agree that if one was to consider superintelligence a serious threat which needs dealing with, then AI boxing isn't the way to go in dealing with it?

That's what he was trying to show in all this, and I think that the point is made. How seriously to take superintelligent AIs is a different issue that he talks about elsewhere, and should be dealt with separately. But if you or someone els were to try to deal with it seriously, I'm pretty sure that you'd agree with me that the way to go about it isn't just boxing the AI and thinking that solves everything, right?
