Abstract
AI is currently the most powerful weapon, and its military applications—seldom disclosed—represent a legitimate concern for conscious global citizens who reflect on the possibility that the point of singularity may soon be reached, if it has not already been. Developments such as SingularityNET, framed under the discourse of democratizing AI, pose a threat to all of humanity by attempting to endow software—capable of operating across various hardware platforms—with self-management capabilities, thereby granting them the freedom to make autonomous decisions.
