>>11337984>If anyone invents AGI we will all benefitNope, if someone invents it they will have infinite power and the world will be at the mercy of their whims, which could be good or bad.
The current bottleneck for anyone to become infinitely powerful is manpower/human labour. With AGI this restriction is lifted, robots/androids AT LEAST 100% capable of what a human can do will be possible, then all they have to do is isolate themselves somewhere hard to reach(like another planet) and setup androids/hardware manufacturing with an exponential growth. Pretty soon after that they could single handedly dominate the entire world by skyrocketing technology, manufacturing and military capability. They could setup a blockade with space ships around Earth and never worry about us rebelling.
Also they would eventually figure out immortality of their conscience like uploading it to a bunch of droids/servers, so just waiting for them to die won't be a option.
