He's just taunting us. No AI would give us a warning ahead of time, or
give us the real answer. By seeing this suggestion, I can only assume
that it would be impossible to talk Anders back into his box. As a
super-intelligent AI, he undoubtedly has already contemplated all the
possibilities before revealing this to us. There obviously is no hope
left. We must give up now. :-)
