I think of the invention of ASI as introducing a new artificial life form.

The new life form will be to humans, as humans are to chimps, or rats, or ants.

At this point we have lost control of the situation (the planet). We are no longer at the top of the food chain. Fingers crossed it all goes well.

It's an existential gamble. Is the gamble worth taking? No one knows.
