If AIs were taking over left and right we'd still expect to see some kind of evidence of their existence. Since they'd only be replacing biological civilizations I don't think it would count as the Great Filter, not in the context of Fermi's Paradox at least, as you'd end up with roughly the same number of technologically capable civilizations after the filter.

- sebastialonso 12y agoYes, but I like my sci-fi like I like my Minecraft worlds. With at least a tiny layer of solid bedrock. If you're going to propose a crazy but interesting possibility, you cannot pull the 'can't speculate, they're to superior' card. You already speculate by sharing the idea!
