I don’t think a nation of Musks would win against current USA because Musk is optimised for some things (making an absurd amount of money, CEOing, twitting his shower thoughts), but an actual war requires a rather more diverse set of capacity.
Similarly, I don’t think an AGI would necessarily win a war of extermination against us, because currently (emphasize currently) it would need us to run it’s infrastructure. This would change in a world were all industrial tasks could be carried away without physical imput from humans, but we are not there yet and will not be soon.
