Look at Y2K, climate. Government won’t do anything until it’s closer to real. When it’s nearer you can bet they’ll get focused minds, fast.
Non-zero chance they drive in and take over. As a government who insists on holding the final power cards (eg violence) you can’t take chances with this because government power means nothing in the face of a significantly smarter entity. Instantly you wouldn’t be able to trust any electronic communication. Not news, not email, not websites, not IM.
