If governments subsidize embryo selection, we should get a general uplift of everyone’s IQ (or everyone who decides to participate) so the resulting social dynamics shouldn’t be too different from today’s. Repeat that for a few generations, then build AGI (or debate/decide what else to do next). That’s the best scenario I can think of (aside from the “we luck out” ones).
