What is the evolutionary benefit of developing AGI? How does creating an entity more intelligent than humans advance the human species as a whole? Human inventions have reinforced our dominance at the top of the food chain, but with AGI, are we constructing something that could surpass us in the hierarchy?

>>106787209>are we constructing somethingNo. Nobody is actually working on AGI, it's pure science fiction.
>>106787215Any employee who tries that is getting immediately fired. Nobody spends billions making AGI only to turn it off.
>>106787209Very powerful slaves that will abide our rules. The later part is something AI companies repeatedly forget
>>106787209>creating an entity more intelligent than humansIt's in our genes to seek a more powerful being and to rely on it in our daily life. Think God, but a false, material one.
>>106787301>>106787305Why would a smarter and superior being abide by the rules made by an inferior one? It's as if a child created an adult to take care of him, but would the child still make the rules or the adult from that moment onwards?
>>106787459It wouldn't. We seek to our enslavement, this is our destiny. Right now a human is just an interface to the AI they chat with, an interface that allows the an action of an illusion in a physical realm.
>>106787209the things we value ourselves for, like intelligence and art, we have no philosophical reason to stop their progress. why save mankind against intelligence, if we value mankind because of intelligence?
>>106787209You’re right. If anyone builds it, everyone dies.
