It is often not practical for something dumber to regulate something far more intelligent. (Humans win against lions despite our physical weakness.) So the best solution I have heard of is to create a Provably Safe AGI (or Friendly AI in Yudkowsky's term) and have them help us regulate other AI efforts. A moral core that aligns with human values need to be part of this Safe AGI.

It is definitely very challenging to create one, and more challenging than creating a random AGI. The morality also needs to be integrated into the Safe AGI as its core that is not susceptible to self-modification ability that an AGI could have. Thus, we need to work on that aspect of AGI now.
