Nowhere in my post did I imply a timeline for this. The first predicate of the argument is when we eventually do develop ASI. You can make plans for that, same as you can make plans for when the sun eventually runs out of hydrogen. The difference is, we can look at the sun and say that at the rate it's burning, we've got maybe billions of years, and then look at AI improvements, extrapolate, and assume we've got less than 100 years. If we had any indication the sun was going to nova in 100 years, people would be way more worried.
