It’s a bit silly to me that Karp can say that the existence of democracy depends on the United States developing superhuman AI weapons. There are absolutely no guarantees regarding how the government or those with access to such a problem solver will choose to use such a system. Perhaps Karp should consider the fact that any executive with superhuman AI will no longer need politics either. With no executive action, an attack by a foreign power is exceedingly rare. But the president losing office within 4-8 years is all but guaranteed. A system capable of navigating the complexities of a battlefield could find more action defeating political opponents and crushing all opposition.
