How about the following preventions:

1 - make sure MI has no actors (by this logic LLMs are safe)

2 - make sure MI doesn't get control over it's energy supply (so we can always starve it)

Easy, easy to verify, and we can in the meantime do something useful instead of the equivalent of discussing the potential risks of cars while living in the stone age.

Update to the replies:

1. "No actors" means it's like a person in prison - has the smartest person ever been able to socially engineer its way out of prison? No, it might have escaped with the help of social engineering but still actors were needed.

2. There's a plug for every machine we use. There is simply no way without actors to "work around" that.

Once we have generally capable robots that can fix stuff / solder things / push buttons AND those robots are controlled by an AI then we can start discussing.

However, this is not now, nor is it in the next 5 years.
