I don't think that aligns with history: we recently went through large shutdowns and lockdowns, we had and have people doing their daily work during war and massive destructions - shutting down things will not be too difficult if the need arises.
- nopinsight 3y agoWars are a terrible analogy because it implies there are multiple sides. Why wouldn't any intelligent being, AGI included, take advantage of that? Not to mention the fact that in most wars there are spies and double agents. In the near future when GPUs become abundant, many small groups of people can harbor a copy of an AGI in their basement, where it can plan and re-spawn whenever the situation becomes accommodating.
- RandomLensman 3y agoAGIs hiding in basements are not an existential threat. Joking aside, what you describe isn't really different to the present (or past) - so it doesn't warrant much of concern in relation to AGI. People have followed ideologies and ideas into doom throughout history, it is not clear that AGI is a change there then. That is, if that type of AGI ever exists in the first place. Maybe real AGI has different desires?
