There's several assumptions you're making. First, that sufficient pressure will be built up into stopping AI before drastic harms occur instead of after, at which point stopping the math will be exactly the same as was stopping cryptography. And that should there be no obvious short term harms to a technology, there can be no long term harms. I don't think it's self evident that all the harms would've already occurred. Surely humanity has not yet reached every type and degree of integration with current technology possible.
