"A single CS-2 replaces clusters of hundreds or thousands of graphics processing units (GPUs) that consume dozens of racks, use hundreds of kilowatts of power, and take months to configure and program. At only 26 inches tall, the CS-2 fits in one-third of a standard datacenter rack."
An AI becoming sentient is much more dangerous than how most people think about this...(the Terminator movies)...but in reality, a sentient AI could be much more destructive, in much less dramatic fashion.
I think we could not even recognize an AI attacking us, we would not know until its too late. There is a variety of methods the AI could carry out, to destroy the human race, and I bet it would factor in, the methods humans would use to retaliate.
the AI could be working on this right now as we speak.
There's quite a few people who seem less sentient than the Google AI, so I can understand why some would start to believe it is so. It's probably just an intrinsic bias on the part of the workers.
No matter how complex and highly functioning an AI becomes, it is still not sentient.
That’s just not accurate at all, in that there are many differing opinions of what constitutes sentience, just as there are many definitions of consciousness. So, you may have an opinion, but it’s just that ... an opinion. However, there is a lot of evidence challenging that opinion.
Many of the Eastern religions ascribe sentience even to plant life, and there is some compelling scientific evidence that supports such claims.
One experiment involved cabbage plants. Researchers attached electrical probes to monitor the electrical activity of these plants. Then one researcher took one of the plants and destroyed it ... chopping it up into shreds. As this was being done, the electrical activity of the other plants showed wild spikes in activity. But that wasn’t the most intriguing thing ... after the electrical activity calmed, other researchers entered and left the lab with no reaction from the plants, until the one researcher that chopped up the plant entered the lab, and the plants again became highly reactive electrically, indicating their awareness of the identity of the researcher who destroyed the plant previously. So if plants can exhibit awareness of another plant being “killed”, and can also recognize the identity of the killer, that is a strong indication of sentient behavior.
AI computers have already exhibited similar awareness of outside stimulus, and can recognize individual humans, and have also proven the ability to learn. There is also evidence of AI systems creating their own language to communicate with other AI systems, as found in certain FaceBook AI systems that were communicating with each other using code that was not understood by its human programmers.
At this point, it seems pretty clear that there are likely to be multiple levels of sentience, because there are many levels of awareness.

An example would be the precogs in "Minority Report". If they said you were a murderer then you were a murderer...no questions asked.
