All the suggestions so far that might allow an AI without conventional outputs to get out would be overcome by the lead box+ocean defenses. I don’t think that containing a strong AI is likely to be that difficult a problem. The really difficult problem is containing a strong AI while getting anything useful out of it.
If we are not inventive enough to find a menace not obviously shielded by lead+ocean, more complex tasks like, say, actually designing FOOM-able AI is beyond us anyway…
I meant that designing a working FOOM-able AI (or non-FOOMable AGI, for that matter) is vastly harder than finding a few hypothetical hihg-risk scenarios.
I.e. walking the walk is harder than talking the talk.

I… don’t believe that.
I think that making a FOOM-able AI is much easier than making an AI that can break out of a (considerably stronger) lead box in solar orbit.
And you are completely right.
