Why would these laptops even pose an existential danger? Why would it need to be within my power?
In regular software this is why all of your personal information is floating out there in some hackers cache. We see humans chaining 5+ exploits and config failures together leading to exploitation and penetration.
So, on your just flip the switch...
The amount of compute you have in your pocket used to take entire floors of buildings. So if we imagine that compute power at least keeps up somewhat close to this, and the algorithms used by AI become more power efficient I believe it would be within reason that in 20 years we could see laptop sized units with compute power larger than a humans capabilities. So, now I ask you, is it within your power to shut off all laptops on the planet?
