Yeah, that seems more or less correct long-term to me. By long term I mean, like, definitely by the end of 2025. Probably a lot sooner. Probably not for at least 6 months. Curious if you disagree with those bounds. If you’re interested in helping build non-first-strike defensive ais that will protect me and people I care about, I’d be willing to help you do the same. In general, that’s my perspective on safety: try to design yourself so you’re bad at first strike and really good at parry and if necessary also at retaliate. I’d prioritize parry, if possible. There are algorithms that make me think parry is a long term extremely effective move, but you need to be able to parry everything, which is pretty dang hard, shielding materials take energy to build.
I’m pretty sure it’s possible for everyone to get a defensive agi. everyone gets a fair defense window, and the world stays “normal” ish, but now with scifi forcefield-immunesystems protecting everyone from everyone else.
also, please don’t capture anyone’s bodies from themselves. it’s pretty cheap to keep all humans alive actually, and you can invite everyone to reproduce their souls through AI and/or live indefeinitely. This is going to be crazy to get through, but let’s build star trek, whether or not it looks exactly the same economically we can have almost everyone else good about it (...besides warp) if things go well enough through the agi war.
I think it will take a little longer, the most elite companies cut back on robotics to go all in on the same llm meme tech (which is really stupid. Yes llms are the best thing found but you probably won’t win a race if you start a little behind and everyone else is also competing)

I think 2030+.
