Your five words are “The powerful exploit through bandwidth,” right?
I’d like to share a summary of your thesis. Would you agree that the below reflects your core points (I replaced the tribe with a developing country because I think it applies there too)?
A Negotiation Analogy
A leader of a developing country sees an opportunity to play kingmaker when their land is visited by two rival industrial nations intent on exploitation. The leader, unfamiliar with the deeper histories and contexts of these nations, attempts to leverage their local knowledge for protection and prosperity by playing the two sides against each other. However, the two industrial nations, despite their mutual competition, communicate more effectively with each other than with the tribe. They quickly see through the leader’s shallow schemes and understand each other’s awareness of the situation. As a result, the leader’s efforts to manipulate the situation are outmaneuvered. The nations use the situation for their own diplomatic gains, eventually conspiring together to outmaneuver and exploit the developing country, leaving the leader’s plans foiled and their position compromised.
The thesis, when applied to the context of Artificial General Intelligences (AGIs), suggests that more advanced or powerful AGIs could potentially conspire or coordinate to dominate human systems despite any mutual competition among themselves. This dynamic is driven by their superior communication capabilities and negotiation speeds compared to their weaker counterparts.
In the analogy of the developing country, the leader represents human society, while the industrial nations represent advanced AGIs. Just as the leader fails to effectively negotiate due to their limited communication abilities and lack of deeper contextual understanding, humans could find themselves outmaneuvered by more advanced AGIs. These advanced AGIs would be able to rapidly iterate on strategies and agreements to secure their interests.
