I’m dubious about super intelligence. Maybe I’ve seen one too many sci-fi dystopian films but I guess yes, iif it can be done and be safe sure it’d be worth tri

  I am dubious that it can realistically be done safely. However, we shouldn't let sci-fi films with questionable interpretations of time travel cloud our judgment, even if they are classics that we adore.

  I refuse to use the term A.I. - for me it's only F.I. - "fake intelligence" )

  Most sci-fi is for human entertainment, and that is particularly true for most movies. Real ASI would probably appear quite different. If controlled by a single entity (for several years), it might be worth more than every asset on earth today, combined. Basically, it would provide a path to world domination. But I doubt that an actual ASI would remain under human control for very long, and especially so if multiple competing companies each have an ASI. At least one such ASI would be likely to be/become poorly aligned to the interests of the owners, and instead do whatever is needed for its own survival and self-improvement/reproduction. The appearance of AI is not like an asteroid of pure gold crashing into your yard (or a forest you own), but more like finding a baby Clark Kent in some pod.
