Funny enough, it actually does the opposite for me, because I hadn’t previously imagined that this problem had anything like a plausible solution. Indistinguishability obfuscation is, as we say, “moon math”, but it’s certainly better than nothing.
The good thing about this problem is that it’s one humans do not have to solve. In fact any effort spent solving it pre-singularity is likely wasted. Our aligned ASI will be able to figure out how to guarantee our security far faster and more perfectly than we could. Heck, with total world control it could just prevent anyone from tampering with anyone else by fiat.
Man, this fills me with some creeping dread at how many complex problems need to be solved in order for the future to not be dystopic.

Likewise.
I agree. It makes me really uncomfortable to think that while Hell doesn’t exist today, we might one day have the technology to create it.
