I don't see how my argument is any different from the arguments about us not being ready for general AI because of how much it could concentrate power.
- adamisom 5y agoSorry for misstating you. It does seem bad if only some have the tech. Maybe in the worst case, rich nations lock others out? That just seems implausible to me, I think any such medicine tech would be shared without delay. With general AI, I think that’s a tech that would not be fully shared and would stay concentrated.
- krageon 5y ago> us not being ready for [thing] because of how much it could concentrate power. Power is already concentrated, such an advancement would not change the indelible fact that we've reinvented kings and dynasties and we can't seem to get rid of them. Given that life has gotten better for everyone anyway when we discover great things, such concerns must be seen as immaterial. Improving the life of all people is more important.
