Mozart didnt invent notes or even music.
Einstien built on his predecessors works sure. But they did their apprenticeships to learn why it worked and built upon that.
I loosely follow another site discussing A.I powered programming. One poster said he knows zero about programming but built a html/scripting language app to do <the job he needed> now maybe it works. Maybe it was a simple app. But he knows not what is happening behind the scenes. He seems ok with that.
Without knowing stuff about things he may expose all sorts of exploits. Sql injections XSS etc.
Now, someone who didnt earn their knowledge who uses a powerful A.I to ask how do i make a bomb or a virulent virus to a certain demograghic.
Depending on its learning source, it might make this virus that attacks X gene (for example) cuz <that race> has it. Now imagine his suprise when he learns that many non <that race> have the same gene! Cuz ya know we came from a limited gene pool. If he knew stuff about things he may have detected this.
Leopards eating faces spring to mind.
Einstien and co questioned their use of the bomb they took part in making.
A.I and by extention the user asking the question will have no such limitations or conscience. Maybe not realising the full potential of the power unleashed.
