> Once we reached AGI, there is no way to back out of it and say we don't want it, because now other countries will also have AGI. Oh sweet child. You think too much of humanity as a whole. If what you said was true, all countries would have had an equivalent of TSMC to begin with. At the very least, every country would have had multiple supply chains for anything they deemed of strategic value. Each country would manufacture cars, computers, commodities. But instead, it’s all outsourced to a player who they think is the best. So if one day some anomaly happens and there is a new sea where China used to be, at least a lot of Europe and North America is going to be screwed big time. Same with AGI. It’s going to happen at one company in one country. Not only will outsource their AI needs to that company, but its home country is going to have a leverage on all of it, but lurk in the shadows most of the time. And once everyone else is dependent on HAL, should it, say, commit suicide as in that Asimov story, all countries that signed up are going to be fucked. |
