Google's 'big red' killswitch could prevent an AI uprising: An 'interruption policy' could be built into algorithms to safely stop a machine

"Google has suggested a "big red button" could be used to prevent artificial intelligence from a "harmful sequence of actions".

A research paper from DeepMind and the University of Oxford says there should be a way to "repeatedly safely interrupt" an algorithm.

"Safe interruptibility can be useful to take control of a robot that is misbehaving and may lead to irreversible consequences, or to take it out of a delicate situation, or even to temporarily use it to achieve a task it did not learn to perform or would not normally receive rewards for this," the paper, which proposes a framework to let humans stop an algorithms from continuing on a dangerous path, says."
