To provide the counter argument I imagine the Effective Altruism folks may give (not that I necessarily support this position): A number of specialist AIs could potentially eliminate 50%+ of all jobs in the next 50 years (a generation). What does society look like when we don't have the safety nets to support a massive unemployed population? What could it mean for geo-politics if the rich countries population is simply rich because they have the most advanced algorithms, but most people don't work? We're talking about massive social unrest worldwide potentially - capitalism cannot necessarily survive this paradigm shift and since the fall of the Berlin Wall the world has no other social organization in modern times, unless we'd like to revert to totalitarian rule. This all presumes of course, that the first AGI they turn on doesn't just turn the universe into a pile of paperclips (ducks)
