I wish to highlight these two important concepts, with which I fully agree.

Artificial intelligence must enable all of humanity to excel and realize its full potential; it must not be used for the purposes of war, economic competition, or gaining dominance over others.

In other words: artificial intelligence must serve natural intelligence, not the other way around.

Unfortunately, human nature being what it is, this seems extraordinarily unlikely.

Its likelihood is moot. It’s happening every day at this point.
A massive amount of human natural intelligence goes into war, economic competition and gaining dominance over others though?
And so will AI, as gathered by a lot of the news around it.
